Description
This stunning 2013 Bowman Chrome Mike Trout base parallel features the iconic Mojo Refractor (Silver Diamond) pattern that provides a deep, multi-dimensional holographic flash. Trout is pictured in his early-career peak form with the Los Angeles Angels. The card features the signature Bowman Chrome logo in the top right and a clean nameplate at the bottom.
Key Features
Early-career Mike Trout parallel, Hall of Fame trajectory, iconic Mojo pattern which is highly sought after by set collectors and Trout enthusiasts.
Authenticity Indicators
Confidence: High. The Mojo pattern is extremely difficult to replicate; it has the correct 'etching' and light refraction. The 'B' Chrome logo has the correct thickness and font weight.
Flaws to Note
Vertical centering favors the bottom slightly. Potential for minor surface scratches common to chrome-finished cards of this era. Top left corner shows a very minute touch of white under magnification.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this specific card to reach the widest audience of Trout collectors. COMC is a secondary option for long-term listing.
Selling Tips
Due to the reflective surface, take photos from multiple angles to prove there are no hidden scratches. Do not grade unless you are confident it will hit a PSA 10; the value gap between a 9 and a 10 is significant for this specific card.
