Description
A beautiful 2016 Topps Allen & Ginter relic card featuring Jen Welter, the first female coach in NFL history (Arizona Cardinals). The card features a classic hand-painted aesthetic with a textured red fabric swatch of 'subject-used memorabilia' embedded in the center. The cream-colored border and elegant filigree work typify the Allen & Ginter Victorian trade card style.
Key Features
Features the first female coach in the NFL. Historic card bridging sports history. The Allen & Ginter set is highly collectible for tracking non-baseball success stories. Contains an authentic swatch of coaching attire/equipment.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The 'Subject-Used Memorabilia' text and official Topps Allen & Ginter 2016 branding are consistent with authentic stock. Red jersey/shirt swatch shows proper mesh texture for athletic wear.
Flaws to Note
Slight right-side centering bias. Relic window edges show minor fuzzing or lifting common with thick card stock. Potential for surface silvering on the gold foil lettering.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform due to its high volume and keyword search for niche sports figures. COMC is a secondary option for long-term consistency.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless it is a certain PSA 10; the cost of grading often exceeds the value of Mid-grade relics. Use keywords like 'First Female NFL Coach' and 'Cardinals' to attract specialized collectors.
