Condition Grade

Centering Assessment
Front appears slightly heavy on the right border, roughly 55/45 left to right. Top-to-bottom looks reasonably well-centered at roughly 50/50.
Surface Condition
Near Mint condition with bright rainbow refractor shine; minor hairline scratching visible under direct light on the glossy coating typical of Panini chromium finishes.
Corner Condition
All four corners appear sharp and un-rounded to the naked eye, though slight microscopic softening could be detected under magnification.
Edge Condition
Clean edges overall with standard Panini factory cutting quality; no major chipping or silver flaking visible along the borders.
Print Quality
High gloss finish with vibrant color saturation and clean laser-cut borders. Minor refractor lines typical of the modern chromium printing process.
Estimated Value
$15 to $35 raw depending on market fluctuations; graded PSA 10 examples command higher premiums around $50-$80.
Comparison to Known Examples
Centering and surface condition are on par with typical pulls from 2021 Donruss retail packs, landing in the mid-tier of raw condition spectrums.
Authentication Tips
Check for correct textured borders, official Donruss logo stamp in the upper right, and correct micro-etching patterns common to Panini inserts.
Grading Recommendation
Raw condition is likely not worth the cost of professional grading unless submitting as part of a bulk order, given current grading fees relative to raw value.
