Description
This 2004 Fleer InScribed Award Winners card features Florida Marlins legend Dontrelle Willis. It includes a premium tri-color game-worn jersey patch (white, black, and teal) with visible stitching. The card celebrates his 2003 NL Rookie of the Year win. It is hand-numbered 14/49 in purple foil on the front left.
Key Features
Low serial numbering (out of 49), tri-color 'prime' patch with stitching, featuring a popular 2000s era star and 2003 NL ROY winner.
Authenticity Indicators
Authenticity confidence high. Correct purple foil stamping, authentic Fleer 'InScribed' logo, and a jersey swatch consistent with 2003 Florida Marlins colors and mesh texture.
Flaws to Note
Significant whitening/chipping along the purple left edge, soft top-right corner, and minor surface indentation near the patch window. Relic cards are notoriously difficult to grade due to thickness.

Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this specific card to reach the widest audience of Marlins and player collectors.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card; the edge wear will likely result in a low technical grade that hurts value. Sell as 'Raw' and use high-resolution photos of the tricolor patch to attract bidders. Use keywords like 'D-Train', 'Game Used', 'Patch', and 'Florida Marlins'.
