Can someone help identify these shiny cards

Hi there

I am a collector of cigarette cards from the 1890s to 1930s and found six Pokemon cards in the bottom of a recent mixed box. Normally, I would pass them on to my nephews but they were each in protective cases so I thought I'd make some enquiries first.

I wonder if someone could tell me about these cards- I have managed to look them up using the numbers at the bottom but I can only find plain looking ones. These are sort of sparkly. I have attached a picture of one of the six I have. The copyright information says 1999 Wizards.
Apologies if they are just the most ordinary things in the world!

Thanks

John

I have some like this somewhere, my grandparents bought them for me from abroad, they were the same as this but turned out to be stickers. I don't know any more about them.

Stickers is exactly what they are. Seriously. These ones in particular, anyway.

Are they worth anything? I have like 50-100 somewhere.

Not really. They were quite abundant so someone who's interested in collecting fakes might offer something like $10 for that many, but other than that fakes are generally regarded as not worth anything since they're counterfeits.

Fair enough :-)
