Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw 2023 Phoenix Sam LaPorta base and silver parallels range from $3 to $10. TCGPlayer and 130Point reflect similar low-to-mid range pricing for non-numbered Phoenix rookies.
Condition Details
Surface appears glossy with vibrant prism effect; however, centering looks slightly heavy toward the left and bottom edges. Minor corner wear visible on the bottom-right tip and slight edge roughness typical of the Phoenix foil stock.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate. Unless the card is a perfect candidate for a PSA 10, the cost of grading ($19-$25) may exceed the market value of the card. Recommended only if combining with a larger bulk submission for personal collection or if you believe it is a flawless gem.
Card Description
Sam LaPorta of the Detroit Lions shown in his home blue jersey and silver helmet, positioned in a ball-carrier stance. The Detroit Lions logo is visible in the upper left. The card features a geometric, 'crystallized' background design characteristic of the Phoenix set with a high-gloss rainbow foil finish.
Notable Features
Features the Rookie Card (RC) designation. This is a first-year card for the Pro Bowl tight end. The card has a light-refracting 'Silver' finish that produces a rainbow effect when tilted in the light.
Authentication Notes
The font, logo placement, and foil stamping are consistent with authentic 2023 Panini Phoenix production. No signs of counterfeiting detected.
