2016 Panini Select Lionel Messi (Select Few Gold) #1 PSA Gem
Mint 10 - #'d 10/10. Just thirteen years old when he left his
native Argentina to begin two decades of service to Barcelona,
Lionel Messi has spent his entire professional career validating
the expectations placed upon his diminutive frame, claiming a
record seven Ballon d'Or awards, six European Gold Shoes, and the
adoration of a global football audience numbering in the billions.
He remains a central figure in any debate regarding not only the
greatest active player, but the greatest player of all time.Messi's recent, earthshaking transfer to Paris Saint-Germain has only served to pour jet fuel upon the raging inferno of his international fame, and the market for his elite trading cards has likewise never been hotter. This is one of the most desirable rarities from that market, a gorgeous parallel card clad in dazzling (and befitting) gold and numbered "10/10" from a limited edition referencing the jersey number that has served as the hallmark of greatness ever since Pele first sported the digits over a half-century ago.
While that tiny population alone would be enough to draw the attention of the top hobbyists in this highly competitive field, a third "10" in the form of a PSA grade adds still another coating of luster to this pristine beauty. Remarkably, this is not just the sole Gem Mint 10 representation in the PSA population, but the only Gold variant from this issue appearing at any grade level.
