Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for the 2024 Shohei Ohtani Iconic Favorites insert have fluctuated between $35 and $55 for raw copies depending on the buyer's region (US vs Japan import costs).
Condition Details
The card appears to be in overall excellent shape, though centering is difficult to fully assess from the angle. Minor surface micro-scratching on the chromium finish is typical for this stock. Corners and edges appear sharp within the sleeve.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate. Only worth grading if the surface is flawless. Shohei Ohtani cards in Dodgers uniforms are highly collectible, but as an insert, a grade lower than a 10 may not provide a significant return over grading costs.
Card Description
Shohei Ohtani is depicted in his Los Angeles Dodgers road gray uniform in a batting stance. The design features a stylized vertical 'FAVORITES' text on the left and various numerical graphic elements in the background representing his stats or jersey number. The Dodgers 'LA' logo is visible in the background.
Notable Features
Features Ohtani in his first year with the Dodgers. Parts of the background utilize a refractor-like foil finish typical of higher-end Topps Japan specialty inserts.
Authentication Notes
The font styles, card stock thickness, and the specific 'Iconic Favorites' logo align with 2024 Topps Japan production standards. No signs of counterfeit reproduction visible.
