Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.50 - $2.00; PSA 10: $15 - $25
Recent Sales
Recent sales of base defensive veteran cards from the 2024 Panini Contenders set generally fall under $2 per card in raw condition on platforms like eBay.
Condition Details
The card appears to have good centering based on the reverse layout. Corners appear sharp from the image, but the bottom left corner may exhibit very minor white speckling indicative of standard factory handling.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of grading (approx. $15-$25) significantly exceeds the projected market value of a base veteran card of a defensive player.
Card Description
George Karlaftis is shown in his Kansas City Chiefs uniform, jersey #56. The card back features his 2023 statistics (45 TCK, 10.5 SCK) and a short bio blurb highlighting his role in the Chiefs' defense. The design includes the Chiefs logo and a red and white themed Panini Contenders aesthetic.
Notable Features
Includes 2023 season stats and career totals; features official NFL and NFLPA logos.

Authentic Panini product. Standard card stock with correct typography, copyright symbols (2025 Panini America, Inc.), and high-resolution printing consistent with the Contenders brand.
