Pieces Of The Past John Adams Presidential Archive Relic Card Appraisal

Pieces of the Past - John Adams Presidential Archive Relic Card

This is a collectible history-themed trading card from the 'Pieces of the Past' series, specifically featuring John Adams, the 2nd President of the United States. The card is a 'Presidential Archive' edition and is designated as a 'Historical Relic Handled by the President.' It features a thick, multi-layered construction typical of high-end relic cards, encased in a clear acrylic magnetic 'one-touch' holder for protection. The front design displays a portrait of Adams in an oval window, set against a background of the American flag with gold-foil filigree corners and a dark blue border. The central feature is an authentic document fragment embedded within the card. This relic consists of a small rectangular piece of cream-colored aged paper with visible black printed text, suggesting it was sourced from a historical document or piece of correspondence contemporary to Adams' era. The card appears to be in 'pack-fresh' condition with no visible soft corners or surfacing issues, though the historical paper relic inherently shows natural age-related yellowing and slight texture variations. These cards are modern 21st-century productions designed for the high-end hobby market, combining historical ephemera with sportscard-style rarity.
