Description
This is a 2023 Score Football Pat Freiermuth card featuring the 'Pink Swirl' parallel design. The card is serial numbered 076/199, visible on the bottom right of the player image. It features Freiermuth in his Pittsburgh Steelers home black jersey with action photography on a vibrant pink holographic swirl background.
Key Features
Features a key starter for the Pittsburgh Steelers; rare 'Pink Swirl' retail-exclusive parallel; limited print run with a serial number of /199.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The foil swirl pattern has the correct light refraction, and the stamped serial numbering (076/199) is consistent with Panini's font and placement for the 2023 Score set.
Flaws to Note
Foil surfaces on Score parallels are prone to micro-scratching. Bottom edge shows minor white chipping visible against the dark black text area. Top-left corner may have a slight speck of white wear.

Selling Tips
Do not grade this card; the return on investment is negative due to grading fees. List it with the keywords 'Case Hit Style,' 'Numbered,' and 'Steelers' to attract team collectors. Ship in a cardboard-backed bubble mailer for protection.
