Does anyone know anything about TY Beanie Babies Collector cards??

I have around 300 of them, Series 3, 2nd Edition. I bought them on Ebay about 10 years ago or so, stuck them in the storage shed, and forgot all about them until I came across them several weeks ago while doing some cleaning in the shed.

There *were* 18 packs that were unopened, and the rest were loose, but someone decided to open the other packs without my knowledge... until I looked at them again the other night to do some research on them. There are quite a few doubles and even triples, but some of them are a little different. A few of them have gold, silverish or bronze backgrounds with little gold starts with the "birth dates" on them. 2 of them, named Flutter, the Ty Dye Butterfly are blank on the gold stars and on the back it says "Birth Date: Unknown Issued: 6/3/95. Several others have raised, gold colored stamps that say "Artist's Proof".

Any information would be greatly appreciated. What little I could find out was just by searching Ebay's "Sold Listings" category, and found several that sold for like $2.50 each that weren't any Artist's Proofs or anything.

Thanks in advance for any info...

Peace,

Ghost
