BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! 1983-1984 7-Eleven Slurpee Sports Discs Collection MLB and NFL Regional Sets Nolan Ryan Eddie Murray
This is an extensive bulk collection of vintage 7-Eleven Slurpee promotional sports discs, also known as coins, dating from 1983 and 1984. These regional issues were originally distributed in the bottom of Slurpee cups and feature stars from both Major League Baseball and the National Football League. The lot is organized into multiple plastic-wrapped stacks with handwritten labels indicating regional sets and specific player inclusions. Identified sets include 1984 Baseball Eastern Region, 1984 Baseball Central Region, 1983 Baseball, and 1983 Football. Notable Hall of Fame and star players visible on the top of stacks include Nolan Ryan (Houston Astros #34), Eddie Murray (Baltimore Orioles #33), Keith Hernandez (New York Mets #17), Rod Carew (California Angels), Vince Ferragamo (Los Angeles Rams #15), Tony Pena (Pittsburgh Pirates #6), Matt Young (Seattle Mariners #40), and Bill Madlock (Pittsburgh Pirates #18). The collection appears to contain multiple complete or near-complete regional sets along with significant duplicate inventory. All items are in English.
Condition report:
These items are ungraded. The visible discs on the exterior of the stacks exhibit Near Mint (NM) characteristics, featuring high-gloss finishes and vibrant color preservation. The circular edges show typical factory burrs and minor plastic irregularities inherent to the manufacturing process of these promotional items. Centering of the player portraits within the colored borders varies, which is standard for these issues. The discs have been stored in tight plastic wrapping which has protected the surfaces from heavy scratching or environmental fading. The handwritten labels are applied to the external plastic wrap and not the discs themselves.
