Description
This is a rare 2024 Wild Card Fantasy Football Steampunk edition featuring TCU Quarterback Josh Hoover. The card features an intricate industrial steampunk aesthetic with gear and sprocket motifs. It is serial numbered 3/3 on the lower left corner, signifying its extreme scarcity. The player is shown in action holding a football, wearing a red jersey. The card comes in its original factory-sealed magnetic one-touch case.
Key Features
Extremely low print run (1-of-3), NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) prospect status for a starting Big 12 Quarterback, and unique 'Steampunk' tech design.
Authenticity Indicators
Factory Wild Card 'Wild Card' foil seal at the top of the magnetic holder, authentic 3/3 serial numbering stamp, and high-quality textured printing synonymous with Wild Card's premium 2024 releases. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
No major visible flaws. Small amounts of micro-scratches may exist on the plastic case itself rather than the card. Since it is factory sealed, any internal surface issues or edge whitening from the manufacturing process are the primary risks.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform due to its broad reach for player-specific collectors. TCU fan groups on Facebook or sports card forums like Blowout Cards are also viable options.
Selling Tips
Do not break the factory seal; keep it in the original magnetic holder as many Wild Card collectors prefer the 'factory encased' status. Use 'Case Hit' and 'Rare 3/3' in the title. Best to list during the college football season when Hoover has a high-yardage game.
