2024 Prestige T'Vondre Sweat Red Premium Xtra Points #343 PSA 9 Mint Football Card Appraisal
Category: Sports Trading Card
Description
This item is a 2024 Prestige T'Vondre Sweat 'Red Premium Xtra Points' football trading card. The card is encased in a PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator) graded slab, indicating a meticulous evaluation of its condition. The label at the top of the slab provides key information: '2024 PRESTIGE', 'T'VONDRE SWEAT', 'RED PREMIUM XTRA POINTS', the card number '#343', the grade 'MINT 9', and the PSA certification number '103221120'. The card itself features a full-color image of University of Texas football player T'Vondre Sweat in his uniform, with a ghostly, slightly translucent second image of him in a helmet to the left. The background has a shimmering red holographic effect. The word 'Prestige' is visible in a script font across the top portion of the card, and 'XTRA POINTS' is printed near the right center. The lower left corner displays 'T'vondre Sweat' in a flowing script signature. On the right side, the card is serial numbered '174/399', indicating it is a limited insert or parallel version. The card appears to be in excellent condition, consistent with the PSA 9 'Mint' grade, showing sharp corners, clean edges, a bright surface, and accurate centering. The encapsulation itself is clear and free of significant scratches or damage, protecting the card within.
Appraisal Report
Having examined the provided image of the 2024 Prestige T'Vondre Sweat Red Premium Xtra Points #343 PSA 9 Mint football card, I've evaluated its condition and potential value. The card is encased in a PSA slab with label information confirming it is the 'Red Premium Xtra Points' parallel, numbered 174/399, and graded PSA Mint 9. Visually, the card appears to align with this grade, exhibiting sharp corners, clean edges, a vibrant surface with the distinct red holographic effect, and solid centering. The PSA encapsulation provides a strong presumption of authenticity and condition as graded, which is a significant value driver for sports cards. The limited serial numbering (out of 399) enhances rarity, contributing positively to its market position compared to base or more common parallels. T'Vondre Sweat is a recent NFL Draft pick, and his market value is currently tied to his rookie status and future potential performance. Recent sales data for comparable PSA graded rookie cards, particularly limited parallels of impact rookies, inform this appraisal. Demand is speculative, dependent on his on-field success and collector interest in the 2024 rookie class. While the PSA slab strongly suggests authenticity, a definitive in-person examination would be required to fully verify the card and slab's integrity, and to assess subtle flaws not visible in images. Reviewing purchase history or original packaging could provide clearer provenance. Scientific testing of the card material is necessary for absolute authentication if any doubt existed, though the PSA grade offers considerable confidence.
