Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8)
Estimated Market Value
Raw estimated at $20 to $50, potential graded value up to $100 depending on final authentication.
Recent Sales
Comparable custom-style or unlicensed insert prints trade across eBay and secondary markets in the $15 to $40 range.
Condition Details
Card exhibits sharp corners with minor edge whitening on the top border and standard surface refractor gloss.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for traditional major grading services like PSA or BGS as this appears to be a custom or unlicensed novelty release.
Card Description
Features Kobe Bryant in his Los Angeles Lakers purple jersey number 24 executing a dunk amidst an artistic watercolor splash background with a cobra motif.
Notable Features
Includes a striking stylized Mamba Ascension header, artistic graphic design, and a limited edition numbering sticker on the protective holder.
Authentication Notes
Appears to be a high-quality aftermarket custom or unlicensed collectible rather than an official NBA-licensed Panini release.
