Description
Attractive 1992 Fleer Ultra Rookie card featuring Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Kim Batiste in a defensive fielding stance. The card features the signature premium high-gloss finish of the Ultra brand with gold foil logos and a marble-textured bottom border design. This is a classic early 90s rookie card from the 'Junk Wax' era.

Rookie Card status; Gold foil '92 Fleer Ultra Rookie' stamp; high-gloss premium finish typical of 1990s Fleer Ultra sets.
Authenticity Indicators
Authentic. The gold foil stamping has the correct texture and light refraction. The high-gloss coating is consistent with 1992 manufacturing standards. This card is not currently targeted by counterfeiters due to high supply. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Minor edge chipping along the bottom left corner; centering is slightly heavy toward the right side; surface gloss is prone to fingerprints and micro-scratching; top-right corner shows slight softening.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (as part of a team lot), COMC, or Sportlots. Not recommended for individual auction as shipping costs will likely exceed the card value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the cost of the grading service is significantly higher than the potential return. Best sold as part of a 1992 Phillies team set or a bulk 'Rookie Card' lot. Use 'PWE' (Plain White Envelope) shipping to keep costs low and attractive to buyers.
