Panini Encased. Hall of Famer. A brilliant gold ink signature by Kobe Bryant and a 1 Troy Ounce Fine Silver ingot-style adornment highlight the front of this clean Panini Eminence offering. Bryant, an 18-time All-Star, was posthumously inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2021. The former Lower Merion High School star won five NBA Finals championships, and this card celebrates the first of those, a six-game victory over the Indiana Pacers in the 2000 NBA Finals. Bryant scored 26 points, with 10 rebounds, in Los Angeles’ 116-111 Game 6 win in the series finale. A statement on the card’s back by Panini attests to the authenticity of the signature, and serves as the item’s COA. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered “04/10.” The item is encased by Panini and displays a generally uncirculated manner of presentation.
