the Freshman Fabric Signatures set

Notes

Set-scope parallel of the "Freshman Fabric Signatures" set. tcdb Inserts.cfm on the parent lists a dedicated sid for every one of the 18 insert/autograph sets in each of Black, Gold and Green - 18 x 3 = 54 rows, which with the 18 parent rows makes the rendered "Insert Sets (72)" heading exactly (https://www.tcdb.com/Inserts.cfm/sid/184567/2018-19-Panini-Certified ). DIRECTLY PROBED: tcdb renders "2018-19 Panini Certified - Freshman Fabric Signatures Gold" with the literal token(s) AU, MEM, SN10 on every rendered row (https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/190510/2018-19-Panini-Certified-Freshman-Fabric-Signatures-Gold ). checklistcenter states the parallels for this set as "Gold #/10; Green #/5; Black 1/1" (https://www.checklistcenter.com/2018-19-panini-certified-basketball/ ). That source was calibrated on this release before being relied on: it matched the tcdb serial tokens 8 of 8 on the base ladder and 10 of 10 on the directly probed set-scope tiers. The Inserts.cfm Notes column on this parent carries image-completion percentages, not print runs, so the blank-annotation test was unavailable and was not run; every figure here comes from a serial-token probe or from checklistcenter. scope_type=set, not block: the thing this parallel scopes to is a row in sets.csv, so it resolves to a distinct set id (EXTRACTION_SPEC 2.3). No base_card_tiers.csv is written for this release and no block-scope row exists. parallel_family=other: no source calls the insert-set colour tiers "Mirror", and the catalogue convention is that a treatment the names do not carry is branding rather than taxonomy. Channel is PRODUCT-LEVEL, not tier-level: no source assigns a channel to this tier individually. The only documented SKU for the product is a hobby box - Steel City Collectibles titles it "2018-19 Panini Certified Basketball Hobby Box" (https://www.steelcitycollectibles.com/i/2018-19-panini-certified-basketball-hobby-box ) and checklistcenter states "Price: Approx. $94USD Per Hobby Box; Configuration: 5 Cards Per Pack; 10 Packs Per Box; 12 Boxes Per Case" (https://www.checklistcenter.com/2018-19-panini-certified-basketball/ ). basis=sourced-presence, not sourced-exclusive: no source says hobby-EXCLUSIVE.
