Recent Sales
Mint/Gem Mint copies of the 2017 Select Zebra Kamara RC have sold between $800 - $1,200; however, due to the visible structural damage on this specific card, its value is significantly reduced.
Condition Details
Significant surface creasing and heavy damage at the bottom-right corner where the card surface appears to be peeling or torn. Chipping along the bottom edge and soft corners are visible. Centering appears slightly shifted to the left and bottom.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The severe surface damage and corner peeling would likely result in a grade of 4 to 5, which would not increase the value enough to justify the grading fees. Authentic/Altered only is also an option if the damage is structural.
Card Description
Alvin Kamara is shown in his New Orleans Saints home black jersey and gold helmet, running with the ball. The card features a distinct black and white 'Zebra' print background and a green shimmer border. The bottom features a 'ROOKIE' banner.
Notable Features
Features the 'RC' Rookie Card shield logo. The Zebra parallel is an unnumbered case-hit style short print, making it one of the most desirable rookie parallels in the 2017 Select set.
Authentication Notes
The print quality and refractive green border patterns are consistent with authentic 2017 Panini Select Zebra parallels. No immediate signs of counterfeiting detected, though the surface integrity is compromised.
