Estimated Market Value
Raw: $30 - $60; PSA 10: $150 - $250
Recent Sales
Recent sales of NBA Hoops Tribute parallels for Hall of Fame legends like Erving typically range from $25 to $75 depending on the specific shimmer/hyper pattern and seller timing on platforms like eBay.
Condition Details
The centering appears slightly heavy toward the left and bottom edges. There is minor edge wear visible along the top. Corners appear relatively sharp but high-resolution scanning might reveal micro-chipping common to this foil stock.
Grading Recommendation
Recommended only if the surface is free of scratches. This card has a high 'wow factor' and a Gem Mint grade (PSA 10) significantly increases value, but typical Panini pack-fresh condition for this set often lands at a PSA 9 due to surface dimples.
Card Description
Julius Erving is pictured in his iconic red Philadelphia 76ers jersey (#6) dribbling the basketball. The card features a 'Tribute' banner at the bottom left, a 76ers logo at the top left, and the NBA Hoops logo at the bottom right. The background features a complex geometric hyper-prism pattern.
Notable Features
Tribute retrospective set design; Hall of Fame player; Case Hit-style prism finish; high-gloss foil stock.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Panini Hoops production. The texture of the geometric foil, the clarity of the 76ers logo, and the specific NBA Hoops font match official 2023-24 production standards.
