2011 Panini Classics Tom Brady Game-Used Swatch Jersey Fusion Card - Graded 9.5 Mint Gem

This is a 2011 Panini Classics football card featuring Tom Brady of the New England Patriots. The card includes a certified 'Game Used Swatch' as part of the 'Jersey Fusion' series, where authentic memorabilia is combined with a classic card design. The card is professionally graded by a third-party authentication service with a high score of 9.5 (Gem Mint), indicating exceptional centering, edge quality, surface condition, and corner sharpness. It features Brady in his home navy and white jersey, dropping back to throw, with the 'BRADY' text vertically aligned on the left. The item is securely housed in a thick plastic slab (encapsulation), which is itself presented in a premium 'Legendary Collection' display box. The box features a white interior lid with red and gold foil script and a custom foam cutout base designed to protect the graded slab. The high grade and the presence of game-worn material make this a significant piece for sports collectors, particularly those focused on NFL memorabilia and future Hall of Fame careers. The colors are vibrant with no visible sun fading on the card or the packaging.
