Description
This is a 2024 Topps Series 2 'Around the Horn' case hit featuring Boston Red Sox star Jarren Duran. This stunning insert features a stylistic, watercolor-influenced artistic design with a heavy textured, refractive foil finish. Duran is depicted in his flex celebration wearing the Red Sox home white jersey. The card features a borderless design with a vibrant color palette of red, blue, and orange.
Key Features
Low-print-run 'Case Hit' status (found on average 1 per hobby case); high-demand young star in a major market (Boston); unique artistic aesthetic and textured surface.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. Authentic Topps logo placement, correct card stock thickness for 2024 case hits, and the intricate 'diamond' pattern texture is difficult to replicate. Common for this year's series.
Flaws to Note
Vertical centering appears slightly off (bottom edge is thinner than the top). Being a textured foil card, surface scratches are a primary concern for grading, though none are visible from the image.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this specific card to capture the widest audience of Red Sox collectors. Alternatively, COMC for a hands-off approach or Red Sox-specific Facebook BST groups.
Selling Tips
Only grade if you are confident in a PSA 10; Case Hits have high premiums in 'Gem Mint' but lose value in lower grades compared to raw. Use a microfiber cloth to gently remove fingerprints before sleeving. List as 'Case Hit' and 'SSP' in the title.
