This 1999-00 Skybox Premium Star Rubies Shaquille O'Neal #55 is hand-numbered 44/45, denoting a limited total print run of 45 copies. Graded BGS 8.5 NM-MT+ by Beckett Grading Services, the card carries individual subgrades of Centering 9.5, Edges 9, Corners 8.5, and Surface 8, with a population of just 2 copies recorded at this tier in the BGS report. Given its strict serial numbering and condition profile, this issue stands as an investment-grade basketball card from the modern era.
Skybox Premium Star Rubies are among the most celebrated parallel sets of the late 1990s, notable for their full-bleed foil finish and extreme sensitivity to edge and surface wear. The 1999-00 release captures O'Neal during his landmark MVP campaign with the Los Angeles Lakers, a season in which he led the franchise to an NBA championship prior to his 2016 induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.Show more
