Panini USA Baseball Nick Banks Collegiate Trading Card

The item is a standard-sized sports trading card, approximately 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches, primarily made of coated cardstock with a glossy finish on the front. The card features a dynamic action shot of baseball player Nick Banks in a batting stance. He is wearing a camouflage-patterned jersey, gray pants, and a black batting helmet. His forearms are covered by what appear to be light blue or gray compression sleeves. The photograph is well-lit and in focus. The card's design includes a dark blue border on the left and right sides, with a subtle vertical pinstripe or pattern within the blue areas. At the top left, there is a shield-shaped logo with the words "COLLEGIATE" at the top, indicating a collegiate baseball theme. Vertically aligned on the right side, the brand name "PANINI" is printed in white capital letters. At the bottom, a white band contains the 'USA BASEBALL' logo, featuring an intricate USA emblem above the word 'BASEBALL'. Below this, the player's name, 'NICK BANKS', is printed in red capital letters. The card exhibits excellent condition, with sharp corners and edges, indicating minimal handling or wear. There are no visible creases, surface scratches, or significant defects that would detract from its eye appeal. The glossy surface reflects light, particularly noticeable over the player's back, which suggests the card is well-preserved. Based on the 'COLLEGIATE' and 'USA BASEBALL' branding, and the modern appearance of the player's gear and card design, it likely dates from the mid-2010s to present.
