Description from Club 808 store:

To continue further testing for our new premium foil decks, Bicycle® layered ink and metal in one complex design to bring you an enhanced version of Bicycle® Espionage. With quality in mind, we were able to achieve a product that has unprecedented light reflection characteristics, beautiful color-tone, no flake durability, and the same quality properties as Bicycle® products are known for – printed on premium cardstock with the brand’s classic air-cushion finish®

From an era of spies, the Bicycle® Espionage deck is a tribute to agents of all kinds. Now available with an enhanced foil design on the individual cards and the embossed tuck. The final product is stunning and needs to be seen to be fully appreciated.

The inspiration for this deck comes from the design on boxes of premium cigars, beautiful, colorful, intricate artwork that goes perfectly with the downright dapperness of smoking a cigar. A cigar band with embossed, gold foil accents wraps around the tuck case. The court cards are inspired by some of the older European designs of playing cards to add to the premium look and feel. This is a Limited Edition deck that is available exclusively to Club 808 Members. The seal on the top of the tuck is a Club 808 seal showing the production quantity of 5,000 decks. Maximum of 24 decks per member.

Hard to find deck that was only released to club 808 members.

Originally labeled as #9, Autobike is one of the most controversial decks in USPC history.  It has been documented that this deck was introduced in 1906 and discontinued in 1913, but no seriouos card collector has ever seen an original version of this back design in person.  Because of this, all seem to unversially agree this card back never actually went into production.
