Key Features
Nick Kurtz was a top selection in the 2024 MLB Draft. This is a limited edition online-exclusive set designed by artist J-Bradshaw, capturing the excitement of the 1st overall draft prospects.
Authenticity Indicators
Authenticity confidence: High. The card features original Topps branding and the distinct J-Bradshaw artistic design. These are rarely counterfeited given the niche nature of the online-exclusive set.
Flaws to Note
Foil surfaces are prone to micro-scratches and print lines. Centering appears slightly heavy towards the bottom and right based on the inner borders, which may limit the grade to a 9.

Where to Sell
eBay is the primary marketplace for these cards. Facebook Baseball Prospect groups are also excellent for reaching targeted buyers during the minor league season.
Selling Tips
Avoid grading unless you are confident in a PSA 10, as the cost of grading often exceeds the value of a raw or 9-grade copy. List as '2024 Nick Kurtz J-Bradshaw Draft Foil' to maximize search hits.
