Help ID - 2014 Topps Update Black - Delmon Young
 
I recently bought a large collection due to wanting the vintage stuff.
However there are a lot of modern as well.
As I am not schooled in the modern stuff, can somebody help ID this?
I know it is 2014 Topps Update black, but the 35/63 is what confuses me.
Is 63 just the number of Blacks there made of this card and this is the 35th made?

Yes, many cards made nowadays have parallels, where they change something about the card (font color, foil, background, etc) and number it sequentially.
I have about 20 different Bowman Draft #63 Jordy Lara cards and I'm still missing the printing plate (4 1/1s for each color), chrome superfractor (1/1), metallic paper (1/1), red paper (/5), etc. So some random Mariners prospect has over 25 variations of a single card released last year, in fact all of them in the set do.

Thanks guys.
Yea, up to now, just a Vintage guy, but this collection has over 20,000 and 3/4 of it is 1992-2010 and i just dont know much about them.

Still sorting. Got em all sorted by sport. Now sorting by Year & Maker.

I know the question has already been answered but I wanted to share this information too. The serial # xx/63 reflects the number of years Topps has been producing cards, so any 2015 Topps black is serial #d xx/64 and this years 2016 is #'d xx/65. I just wanted to share that bit of information
