2025 Upper Deck National Convention Checklist

Multi-sport convention checklist with NHL rookies, VIP cards and autograph chases

2025 Upper Deck National Convention is the Upper Deck wrapper redemption set from the 2025 National Sports Collectors Convention in Rosemont, Illinois (July 30 to August 3, 2025). Buying a qualifying sealed box from an Upper Deck Certified Diamond Dealer at the show earned one free three-card pack, and a sealed case earned ten packs plus one randomly selected autograph card. VIP package holders received the five-card Prominent Cuts set. Four instant-win redemption cards in the packs could be exchanged at the Upper Deck booth for a six-card Emerald or Gold autograph set.

What's in the checklist

• Base: National Worthy, 10 cards (NW-1 to NW-10) spanning the NHL, PWHL, soccer, volleyball, AEW wrestling and golf
• Parallels: National Worthy Red, numbered /25, with its own NWP- numbers. No other parallels of the base cards are listed
• Inserts: Top Shelf NHL Rookies (10, TS-), Pride of Chicago (5, POC-) and the VIP-only Prominent Cuts set (5, PC-) of Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, Taylor Heise, Tiger Woods and Kerri Walsh Jennings
• Autographs: National Worthy Autographs (6, numbered per subject from /10 to /90), Top Shelf NHL Rookies Autographs (10, /20 to /60), National Worthy VIP Autographs (5, /15), National Worthy Dual Autographs (McDavid with Gretzky, and Heise with Fillier, /5) and Pride of Chicago Autographs (5, /10). There is no single print run across these families
• Instant-win sets: the Emerald (/3, EM-) and Gold (1/1, AU-) National Worthy autographs were awarded as sets, not packed. The EM and GL redemption cards that won them are listed separately, and the checklist gives those cards no serial number

Key subjects

Connor McDavid, Macklin Celebrini, Lamine Yamal, Sarah Fillier, Connor Bedard and MJF.

Grading considerations

Match the exact prefix before submitting: NW base, NWP Red, NWA autograph, EM Emerald or AU Gold. Also note whether you hold the redeemed autograph card or the redemption card itself. Check the surface under angled light for print lines and scratches, check centering front and back, and inspect edges and corners. This is general guidance only: a checklist confirms which card you have, not its condition or grade. See our grading scale.

About this checklist

The cards come from Upper Deck's official 2025 NSCC checklist, with each family's card numbers kept as listed. Some checklists label Top Shelf NHL Rookies as 2024-25; here it stays part of the 2025 event set. RC follows the checklist's rookie flag.
