Condition Details
Image shows the card in a binder sleeve which obscures clarity; however, significant surface glare, potential soft corners, and centering issues are suggestively visible. Severe surface scratches may be present on the binder pocket itself.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. Current market value for a base Messi veteran card in this condition likely would not exceed the cost of grading fees ($15-$25).
Card Description
Lionel Messi is shown in a suit representing Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) shortly after his high-profile transfer. The background features a large PSG logo. The card celebrates his move to the French club.
Notable Features
Features Messi in non-action attire (formal suit) holding a beverage. This was part of a special 'subset' or specific image variation within the 2021-22 Topps Chrome product line. Includes the UEFA Champions League logo.
Authentication Notes
The Topps Chrome logo and general design elements appear consistent with authentic 2021 Topps Chrome production, though low image quality prevents definitive verification of surface foil and stock.
