Panini Prizm ##364
Year & Era
2019 — Current/Chrome Era
Card Type
Pink Laser Prizm Parallel / Rookie Card
Grade
Authentic / Poor (Trimmed/Altered)
Rarity
Uncommon; Pink Laser Prizms were retail-exclusive (Mega Boxes), but the damage/alteration negates typical rarity premiums.
Overall Assessment
This is a heavily damaged 2019 Panini Prizm Dawson Knox Pink Laser Rookie Parallel. While a popular card for Bills fans, the jagged, hand-cut appearance and crimped corner make it a 'filler' copy in 'Poor' condition. It serves better as a personal memento than a collectible asset.
Condition Grade
Authentic / Poor (Trimmed/Altered)
Centering Assessment
Severely off-center; top border appears missing or cut, bottom border is heavily skewed.
Surface Condition
Significant scratches and dimples visible; the Prizm laminate shows refracting light across the laser pattern.
Corner Condition
Poor; the bottom-left corner is heavily bent/crimped. The top corners appear to be victim of a crude manual cut or trimming.
Edge Condition
Extremely poor; the card edges are jagged, wavy, and clearly do not conform to factory standards. They appear hand-cut.
Print Quality
Standard for 2019 Panini; good color saturation but the physical integrity of this particular copy is compromised.
Estimated Value
$1 - $3 (Utility value/placeholder)
Comparison to Known Examples
Significantly below average; most 2019 Prizm cards maintain sharp edges even if off-center. This copy is significantly damaged compared to pack-fresh examples.
Authentication Tips
Look for the Panini 'Prizm' logo in the top right. Genuine cards have a smooth, guillotine-cut edge and specific card stock thickness. This copy shows signs of manual trimming.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended; any reputable service (PSA, BGS, SGC) would likely reject this for 'Evidence of Trimming' or 'Altered' status.
Red Flags
Major red flags; the top and bottom black borders are uneven and jagged, suggesting the card was cut out of a sheet or trimmed with scissors.
Provenance Notes
Originally distributed in 2019 Panini Prizm Retail Mega Boxes. Likely a 'back-pocket' find or a card handled without protection by a young fan.
Historical Context
2019 Prizm is a landmark set due to the Kyler Murray and Daniel Jones rookie class. It solidified Prizm as the 'king' of modern football card collecting.
Market Trends
Tight End market is volatile; while Knox is a key contributor to the Bills, damaged cards do not follow typical market appreciation trends for star players.
Investment Potential
None; due to the heavy physical damage and evidence of trimming, this card has no long-term financial growth potential.
