High confidence authentic. Features the specific Topps 75 diamond logo and 'Shortstop' designation unique to this variation. Card stock and printing patterns match 2024 Topps production standards.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this specific card to reach a wide audience of player and set collectors. COMC is a good secondary option for fixed-price sales.
Selling Tips
Immediately place this card in a penny sleeve and top loader to prevent damage. Use high-quality scans or photos on a flat, neutral background. Use keywords 'SSP' and 'Golden Mirror' in the title. Grading is only recommended if the surface and corners are flawless, as the centering issue may hold it back from a PSA 10.
