Hagen Danner Appraisal

Hagen Danner USA Baseball Panini 18U National Team Baseball Card

This item is a modern sports trading card, specifically a baseball card featuring Hagen Danner. The card is rectangular, made of stiff cardstock, and exhibits a glossy finish on the front. The primary image on the card features a baseball player, identified as Hagen Danner, in a pitching or throwing motion, wearing a grey USA national team uniform with red lettering (USA) and the number '9' visible. He is also wearing a blue cap with a USA logo and glasses. The background behind the player is blurred with what appears to be another player in a red uniform. Notable features include the branding and text elements. In the upper left corner, there's a red shield emblem with '18U' and 'NATIONAL TEAM' indicating the player's age group and team. Along the right vertical edge, the word 'PANINI' is printed vertically, signifying the manufacturer. At the bottom of the card, a white band contains the 'USA BASEBALL' logo, and beneath it, 'HAGEN DANNER' is printed in red block letters, indicating the player's name. There is a small, bright circular glare on the surface of the card, likely from the flash of the camera, obscuring a small portion of the player's midsection. The visible condition appears to be relatively good, with sharp edges and corners discernible, suggesting minimal wear. There are no obvious creases, bends, or significant surface abrasions visible in the image, apart from the light reflection. The colors are vibrant and well-saturated. The card appears to be from a contemporary period, likely a recent release given the modern design and Panini branding, which is a prominent trading card manufacturer in the 21st century. The craftsmanship indicates mass production consistent with modern trading card sets, with a focus on clear imagery and branding.
