A clean, visually appealing team-color-adjacent parallel ideal for Buffalo Bills fans and Dawson Knox completionists.
Condition Grade
9 (Mint) estimated
Centering Assessment
Front: 45/55 Left-to-Right, slightly heavy on the right border. Top-Bottom appears balanced 50/50.
Surface Condition
Near Mint-Mint; high gloss finish typical of Mosaic Chrome. No visible scratches or dimples from photo distance.
Corner Condition
Excellent to Mint; corners appear sharp with no white chipping visible on the orange substrate.
Edge Condition
Mint; clean factory cuts visible along the top and sides without the common foil chipping seen in Mosaic.
Print Quality
High; vibrant orange saturation and crisp registration of the Mosaic pattern.
Estimated Value
$1.00 - $5.00 (Raw), $15.00 - $25.00 (PSA 10)
Comparison to Known Examples
Centering is slightly better than average for 2022 Mosaic, which suffered from significant left-to-right shifts.
Authentication Tips
Check for the 'Prizm' technology logo on the back and the authentic 'Mosaic' texture that reacts to light; counterfeits often lack the depth of the refractive finish.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading unless for personal collection (PC), as grading fees exceed the market value of the card.
Red Flags
No significant red flags observed; card appears authentic and unaltered.
Provenance Notes
Originates from a 2022 Panini Mosaic Retail Mega Box; retail distribution makes these widely available.
Historical Context
Dawson Knox has been a key end-zone target for Josh Allen, becoming one of the most productive TEs in Bills history.
Market Trends
Stable/Soft; Tight End market remains niche and tied heavily to team performance and touchdown stats.
Investment Potential
Low; as a non-rookie retail parallel of a non-Hall of Fame level Tight End, long-term growth is limited.

Display & Preservation
