Olympic /Paralympic cards are printed on thin bright white paper and have a glossy finish. I don't know the difference in the US and USA distinctions... I first thought Olympic participants, medal hopefuls, paralympic participants, but many of the athletes are in both sets - so, if someone out there in the 'sphere' knows the difference - please let me know.
USA and US sets feature many of the same athletes in different action shots. Lindsey Vonn and Bodie Miller are both in each set with different pics... (along with other athletes.) The reverse of the cards are different as well. Each reverse tells a story of their skills and a bit of their background getting to the Olympics -- along with personal stats.

Both autos are stickers and both look great... this box could be an exception - 2 autos when 1 was predicted -- sweet!!
This issue, Olympic and Paralympic cards is pretty cool to look at while watching the Olympics.. The cards will give you more insight into the athlete when you see them perform - IF NBC decides to show the performance....
Overall grade B+
Go buy a box or 3 and see what autos you might pull!!
