Description
This is a 2021 Donruss Optic Rookie Revolution Holo insert featuring quarterback Mac Jones in his New England Patriots uniform. The card features a vibrant 'Holo' rainbow refractor finish with a unique geometric star/burst background pattern. It includes the official Panini RC shield. The surface exhibits a high-gloss finish typical of the Optic brand.
Key Features
Includes the RC (Rookie Card) logo; Mac Jones' debut year; popular Donruss Optic 'Holo' parallel which is the chrome-style version of the base insert.
Authenticity Indicators
The Holo finish should react to light with a smooth transition; the 'Donruss' logo and card stock thickness are consistent with Panini's 2021 production. Confidence is High; this specific insert is not widely faked compared to high-end autos.
Flaws to Note
Potential surface scratches (common with Optic card stock); slight top-heavy centering; minor edge chipping often found on the back of Optic cards; possible print lines visible under direct magnification.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this card due to its high volume of low-to-mid tier sports cards. It could also move at a local card show in a 'value box'.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless you are confident in a PSA 10, as the grading fee likely exceeds the value of a PSA 9. Use keywords like 'Mac Jones RC', 'Optic Holo', and 'Pats Rookie'. Ship in a bubble mailer with tracking (Ground Advantage) for protection.
