This 1997-98 Metal Universe Titanium Kobe Bryant #3 is graded BGS 9.5 Gem Mint, supported by subgrades of Centering 10, Corners 10, Surface 9.5, and Edges 9. Part of a 20-card insert set from the iconic 1997-98 SkyBox Metal Universe release, this card features a distinct oval die-cut shape and a textured blue foil finish. Because of the delicate die-cut borders and full-bleed foil design, these cards are highly susceptible to edge chipping and surface wear. Out of the Beckett grading population, only 110 examples have achieved this Gem Mint 9.5 designation.
Released during Bryant's sophomore season in the NBA, the Titanium inserts were a challenging pull seeded at a rate of 1 in 72 packs. Representing one of the most celebrated eras of basketball insert design, this card showcases the 18-time All-Star, 5-time NBA Champion, and Hall of Famer in his early career with the Los Angeles Lakers. This specimen stands out for its exceptional technical preservation, anchored by two perfect 10 subgrades.Show more
