Front: Approximately 55/45 Left-Right and 50/50 Top-Bottom. Back centering cannot be assessed from the provided image.

Authentication Tips
Check for correct textured metallic finish, proper font alignment, and official Panini hologram or licensing logos on the reverse.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading unless part of a bulk submission, as the grading fees would likely exceed the card's final market value.

No significant red flags observed; standard modern raw card handling wear.
Provenance Notes
Pulled from standard 2020-21 Panini Prizm retail or hobby packs.
