1996 Topps Chrome Mickey Mantle Reprint Refractor #10

This is a 1996 Topps Chrome baseball card featuring New York Yankees legend Mickey Mantle. The card is a modern reprint of the classic 1954 Topps design, specifically designated as 'HR# 10' in the commemorative set. It is printed on specialized Chrome cardstock with a high-gloss finish and metallic silver borders. This particular example appears to be the 'Refractor' parallel, evidenced by the rainbow-like light refraction appearing in the textured blue and silver background when exposed to light. The layout features a dual-image design: a full-body action shot of Mantle batting on the left and a portrait bust on the right wearing a Yankees cap. A facsimile autograph of Mickey Mantle is printed across the center. The bottom of the card contains a red banner with his name and team details. The card is currently housed in a plastic top-loader for protection. Physically, the card displays sharp corners and no obvious surface scratches or creases, indicating a potential high grade for a modern collectible. The centering appears slightly heavy toward the left and bottom borders. The 'Chrome' logo is visible in the upper right corner, a hallmark of this high-end Topps product line from the mid-1990s.
