Description
A beautiful 2017 Topps Allen & Ginter relic card featuring former MVP Christian Yelich during his tenure with the Miami Marlins. This card features a high-quality white mesh game-used jersey swatch embedded in the classic 19th-century lithograph design. The artwork features a painterly portrait of Yelich against a green textured background withornate Victorian-style scrollwork surrounding the relic window.
Key Features
Features an authentic piece of game-used memorabilia. Yelich is a 2018 NL MVP and 2-time All-Star, making his memorabilia highly collectible for Marlins and Brewers fans alike. Classic Allen & Ginter aesthetic.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. Authentic Topps relic cards feature specific matte card stock and precise die-cutting around the jersey window. The 'Game-Used Memorabilia' text is clear, and the 2017 Topps copyright should be on the reverse.
Flaws to Note
A noticeable horizontal surface indentation or faint crease is visible on the middle-left edge near the scrollwork. This flaw would likely keep the card from a high grade. Slight corner whitening on the bottom right.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this card due to the high volume of player collectors. COMC (Check Out My Cards) is also a great option for low-to-mid value relics.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card. The cost of the grading fee exceeds the raw value, particularly with the visible surface flaw. List as a Buy It Now (BIN) with 'Best Offer' enabled. Use keywords like 'Marlins', 'MVP', and 'Jersey Patch' to increase search visibility.
