Population Context
The base Prizm rookie is one of the most commonly submitted cards from the 2021-22 class to PSA. PSA 10s are obtainable but not guaranteed — typical grade distribution skews toward PSA 9 due to centering and surface issues. Silver Prizm versions are heavily graded as well. PSA 10 Silver Prizms are significantly more valuable and have moderate population numbers.
Collector Notes
Centering is the most common issue on 2021-22 Prizm cards — look for left-to-right centering as this is frequently off-center. Surface scratches and print lines are also common. When buying raw, inspect corners carefully under good lighting. Silver Prizm versions tend to show surface wear more easily due to the chrome finish. The Prizm Draft Picks set (a separate product) also has a Cunningham rookie and is sometimes confused with the base Prizm set — collectors should verify which product they are purchasing.
