2025-26 Upper Deck Artifacts Hobby Box

What's in a Hobby box (on average):

• Autographs, Memorabilia cards or Premium inserts - 3 in all
• Rookie Redemptions or Acetate cards - 1 total
• Basic or parallel cards numbered in series - 4 in total

Hobby boxes contain three autographs, memorabilia cards or technical inserts, four serially numbered base cards or base parallels, plus a Rookie Redemption or acetate insert. In total, the eight collectible cards are evenly distributed across the eight packs in each box.

• Stars /699 (#s 101-135)
• Goalies /699 (#s 136-150)
• Legends /599 (#s 151-170)
• Rookies /999 (#s 171-200)
• Rookie Redemptions (#s 201-250)

The first 200 cards of the set are covered by a long list of numbered parallels:

• Sky Blue (Blaster exclusive)
• Ruby /599
• Lime Green /125
• Jade Green /100 (Blaster exclusive)
• Platinum Sparkle /99
• Copper /75
• Yellow /50
• Metallic Blue /40
• Pink /35
• Purple /25
• Rose Gold /15
• Emerald's Glow /10
• Black /5
• Masterful Artifacts /1

Some basic cards will also have parallels with autographs and memorabilia, which have various printings and are available in Gold, Emerald, Purple and Black versions.

Autographs and Memorabilia cards

Artifacts offers collectors numerous autograph and Memorabilia concepts, both easy to find and rare.

NHL Remnants (1:30 packs), Auto Facts (1:40), Threads of Times (1:100) and the new History Lesson Signatures (1:120) are among the easiest concepts to find. All are also available in Blaster boxes, but at much higher prices.

History Lesson Signatures require two cards to form a pair. On one side is a card signed by a legend, and on the other, a card signed by a current star. When placed together, the two cards form a complete photo.

Among the hardest sets to find are :

• Signature Apparel
• Signs of Success
• Top Tier Rookie Signatures (1:1,000 packs)
• Tundra Teammates Duos /99
• Desert Dogs Relics /96
• Tundra Teammates Quads /49
• Esteemed Endorsements /28
• Aurum Signatures /25
• Admirable Impressions /24
• Jersey Retirement Night Ticket Relics /10

The challenge continues with Arena Artifacts 2025-26, featuring the Colisée de Québec, home of the Quebec Nordiques from 1972 to 1995.

Cards in the series are numbered to /67 and feature legends who played at the Quebec Coliseum, as well as a piece of relic from the facility.

Madison Square Garden is also featured in the Benchmark Autographs series.

These cards feature autographed signatures and fragments from the MSG visitors' bench.

The new Puck Luck cards are numbered up to /4 and feature an important piece of a field hockey puck used and dated during a game.

Presentation of inserts

Collectors will be on the lookout for other inserts in the enthusiast boxes.

Clear Cut Artifacts Rookie Update 2024-25 (1:40 packs) and Clear Cut Artifacts Rookies 2025-26 (1:54) are acetate inserts, while Antiquity (1:80) and Antiquity Rookies (1:160) feature a glass-inspired design.

Gold Light F/X Aurum inserts make a comeback in Artifacts Bounty Hunt.

The basic inserts have a probability of appearance of 1 in 20 packs, but the rest of the 48-card set is divided into several harder-to-find tiers:

• Aurum SP Rookies (Tier 1), 1:100
• Aurum SP Rookies (Tier 2), 1:150
• Aurum SP Greats All-Stars, 1:240
• Aurum SP Greats, 1:300

Each Aurum Bounty card has a scratch-off code on the back, and collectors who enter all 48 codes online at UpperDeckBounty.com can receive cards No. 49 and No. 50. But by finishing early, you have the chance to win even more prizes.

• The first three collectors to redeem the full set of 48 Aurum Bounty cards will receive a set of 12 Aurum cards, an Aurum Autograph card and an Aurum Dual Autograph card.
• The next seven collectors to redeem the full set of 48 Aurum Bounty cards will receive a set of 12 Aurum cards and an Aurum Autograph card.
• The next 15 collectors to redeem the full set of 48 Aurum Bounty cards will receive a set of 12 Aurum cards.

All other collectors who complete the Bounty set will receive only No. 49 and No. 50 cards.

Rookie Redemptions

Due to the NHL's strict rules concerning players' participation in an official regular-season game prior to their appearance on the cards, Artifacts generally releases new season players too early to include them in the roster.

The solution is the Rookie Redemption program, which includes rookie selections by team and wild cards.

Collectors can find redemption cards for Emerald parallels, photo variations, autographs or souvenir versions in addition to the usual rookie cards.

The list of players who will appear on the "Rookie Redemption" checklist is not usually announced until late in the NHL season.
