54 base cards and 1 duplicate
UEFA Champions Chrome is a premium product. The front is a mirror with an action shot of the player. The cards are thick and stiff.... and this particular box the cards have a slight bit of the 'chrome curl'. The cards look good and are well printed. The design reminds me of Stadium Club from years ago. I believe the set is 100 cards and I received 54% of a base set.
The reverse has '16-'17 season stats along with a summary of highlights from last season. UEFA Champions Chrome is a good intro for Topps into the UEFA Champions league. It is also a good issue to get someone started in collecting soccer. With a set of only 100 cards, it should be reasonably easy to complete a base set with 2 or 3 boxes....

***********
There is a very good mix of base and inserts in UEFA Champions League Chrome. This should please just about everyone that picks up a box or 3...
Overall grade A ...
Go buy several boxes and see what you pull.
