Population Context
The 1998 Topps Manning #360 is one of the most commonly submitted football rookie cards to PSA and BGS. Due to its age and mass production, high grades (PSA 10) are relatively scarce compared to the large number submitted. PSA 9s are more common, while PSA 10s command a significant premium. Centering issues are frequently noted, making true gem mint copies harder to find.
Collector Notes
Centering is the primary challenge with this card — left-to-right and top-to-bottom centering issues are very common, making well-centered copies scarce. Collectors should also watch for surface scratches on the foil and corner wear. The card has a glossy front with gold foil elements that can show fingerprints and handling marks easily. Always inspect under good lighting before purchasing raw copies. The Minted in Canton stamped version is the chase parallel for this set.
