Description
Featured is a highly coveted 2021-22 Panini Prizm Austin Reaves Gold Shimmer Rookie Card. This card is a 'First Off The Line' (FOTL) exclusive, serial-numbered to only 10 copies. The card features a stunning gold cracked-ice style shimmer finish that captures the light brilliantly. Reaves is shown in his home Lakers white jersey driving to the hoop. A cornerstone piece for any Los Angeles Lakers or Austin Reaves collector.
Key Features
True Rookie Card (RC), gold color match with the Lakers team colors, extremely low print run (Short Print /10), and high demand for Reaves as a key starter in a major market.
Authenticity Indicators
Correct Prizm font and logo placement; complex shimmer etching pattern; distinct Panini card stock thickness. Confidence: High. Serial numbering on back (not visible in photo but expected) should be crisp.
Flaws to Note
Minor top-loader scratches (surface of the holder only) are visible; the card itself appears clean. Prospective buyers should check the back centering, as 2021 Prizm is known for centering issues and potential surface dimples.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best suited for eBay (with Authenticity Guarantee), Goldin Auctions, or PWCC Premier Auction due to the high price point and the rarity of the /10 Gold Shimmer parallel.
Selling Tips
Grading this card with PSA is highly recommended before selling. A high grade (PSA 9 or 10) significantly multipliers the value of short-print gold parallels. Use keywords 'FOTL', 'Gold Shimmer', 'Lakers', and 'Rookie /10' in the title.
