Recent Sales
Recent sales for 2022 Optic Diamond Kings parallels numbered to /249 range from $2 to $10 depending on the specific parallel color and player star power. Ramirez is a high-demand star but non-MLB licensed products (Panini) carry lower premiums than Topps.
Condition Details
Observed via the back of the card: centering appears slightly shifted toward the top-right. Corners show very minor white flecks consistent with a card in a soft sleeve but without a top-loader for extended time. Back surface appears clean with no visible scratches.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of grading ($15-$25+) likely exceeds the market value of the card even at a high grade. Grading is generally reserved for Rookie Cards or very low-numbered parallels (/10 or less) for this specific brand.
Card Description
The card features Jose Ramirez, third baseman (3B) for Cleveland. The back contains a biographical blurb highlighting his achievement as the 13th switch-hitter to reach 150 HRs, 150 steals, and 500 RBIs, comparing him to legends like Mickey Mantle and Chipper Jones.
Notable Features
Individually serial-numbered 226/249 in gold foil on the back. Part of the iconic 'Diamond Kings' insert subset under the Donruss Optic brand name.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Panini product. Features standard 2022 Optic typography, correct 'Prizm' technology branding in the corner, and the legal copyright for Panini America and MLB Players Inc. (noting the lack of MLB team logos/trademarks typical for Panini).
