Population Context
The 2003-04 Fleer Avant base set cards are not as frequently submitted to PSA/BGS as flagship sets. Kobe cards from this era do get graded, but Fleer Avant Kobe base cards in PSA 10 are relatively scarce due to the card's finish and tendency to show print lines or surface wear. PSA 9s are the most commonly seen high-grade copies.
Collector Notes
The 2003-04 Fleer Avant set used a distinctive matte-style finish with an artistic, avant-garde design aesthetic. Collectors should look for surface scratches, print lines, and centering issues which are common on this product and can affect grading. The card stock was premium for its time but can be susceptible to edge wear. Always inspect corners closely before purchasing raw copies intended for grading.
