2017 Topps Series 2 Aaron Judge Rookie Debut Us166 Appraisal

2017 Topps Series 2 Aaron Judge Rookie Debut #US166

This is a 2.5 by 3.5 inch standard-sized collectible trading card produced by Topps for the 2017 Season. The card features New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge in his home pinstripe uniform, holding a bat in a batting stance. A critical identifier is the 'ROOKIE DEBUT: 8/13/16' text located above the name plate, along with the official 'RC' (Rookie Card) logo at the top left, signifying its importance as a rookie-year issue. The card design utilizes a full-bleed photo background with silver, white, and red graphic accents at the bottom, including the New York Yankees primary logo. The card appears to be housed in a protective clear plastic sleeve or 'penny sleeve,' which shows significant surface scratching and light reflection, though the card itself beneath the plastic seems to have relatively sharp corners and clean edges based on visual inspection. There are no obvious creases or surface tears visible on the card stock. The color registration is vibrant, and the centering appears slightly biased towards the left border. As a massive star and perennial MVP candidate, Judge's 2017 Topps cards are highly sought-after staples of modern baseball card collecting.
