2016 Donruss Football Drew Brees Gold Press Proof #146

This is a 2016 Donruss football card featuring New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees. The card is a 'Gold Press Proof' parallel, distinguished by its metallic gold-toned foil borders and accents compared to the standard base set. The card 2.5 by 3.5 inches, printed on typical cardstock with a glossy finish. It depicts Brees in his white 'away' jersey, black pants, and gold helmet, captured in a dynamic passing pose. The design includes a prominent Saints fleur-de-lis logo in the upper left corner and the Donruss 'D' logo on the bottom right. The player's name and position are clearly printed at the bottom. This specific card appears to be from the 2016 release, marking the Saints' 50th anniversary season, as evidenced by the '50' patch visible on Brees's jersey. The card is currently housed in a clear protective plastic penny sleeve. Key condition observations include sharp corners and clean edges, though absolute mint status would require magnification for surface scratches or centering issues. The gold coloring is a high-quality foil application that gives the card a premium feel over the basic retail versions.
