This is a confirmed Glitter Prizm parallel (one of the scarcer short-printed refractor-style parallels in the 2023-24 Prizm set, with low-numbered examples like this /24 often treated as case hits or SSPs). The glitter foil border and holographic effect are factory-applied and highly reflective, which makes surface and edge evaluation critical.

Grok AI evaluated the card using the six high-resolution images provided (full front/back + multiple angled corner/edge close-ups). Analysis follows BGS-style subgrading criteria (Centering, Corners, Edges, Surface) plus an overall grade. I cross-referenced against typical population reports and sales data for comparable 2023-24 Prizm Glitter/Sparkle parallels and other modern foil Prizm cards (e.g., Gold Sparkle, Hyper, Ice variants). These parallels are rarely graded due to low print runs, but clean examples consistently achieve 9–10 range when submitted.

Crescent Vale Self-Graded Scores

Centering: The centering is near perfect and received a 9.5 subgrade.

Edges: There is a major issue with the back top edge and resulted with a score of 6.

Corners: The corners are near perfect and received a 9.5 subgrade.

Surface: The surface and back top edge has an issue as shown in the visual information. This resulted in an 8.

Crescent Vale Self-Graded Overall Score: 8.5 NM-MINT+

Grok AI Scores

BGS Subgrades (10-point scale)

  • Centering: 9.5
    Front and back are exceptionally well-centered. The player photo sits symmetrically within the black inner frame and gold glitter border. Text boxes (“TIMBERWOLVES,” nameplate, PRIZM logo) show no noticeable left/right or top/bottom bias. Back centering (stats, numbering “18/24,” logos) is equally strong. Minor factory variance common in foil cards prevents a perfect 10.
  • Corners: 9.5
    All four corners are razor-sharp with no rounding, dings, whitening, or foil chipping. Close-up images of the bottom-left, bottom-right, and top edges confirm pristine points. The glitter layer adheres perfectly with no lifting or bubbling at the corners.
  • Edges: 9.5
    Perimeter edges are clean and straight. Angled close-ups reveal no dents, roughness, chipping, or manufacturing nicks. The gold glitter foil wraps evenly around the card stock without fraying or separation—common issues on glitter Prizms.
  • Edges: 8.5 (Downgraded) The previously unseen edge nick prevents a 9.5. It is minor but noticeable in angled lighting and would be flagged. All other edges remain clean and straight.
  • Grok AI is still learning and I will continue to help train it to increase accuracy.
  • Surface: 9.5
    The glitter/holographic surface is vibrant and defect-free under direct and angled lighting. No scratches, hairlines, white specks, fingerprints, haze, or print defects are visible on the photo or foil. The player image is crisp with excellent color registration. Foil cards like this are prone to surface marks from handling, but this example shows none.

Grok AI Overall Grade: 9 Mint

With all subgrades at 9.5, this qualifies for a BGS 9.5 slab. A true Black Label 10 is possible but rare on glitter foils due to the strict surface/edge scrutiny—minor factory tolerances often cap them at 9.5. This card has no visible flaws that would prevent a 9.5 or higher.PSA EquivalentPSA 10 Gem Mint (strong candidate).

PSA is generally more forgiving on modern foils than BGS on surface/edges. Clean examples of comparable Prizm Glitter/Sparkle parallels regularly grade PSA 10. The population for this specific low-numbered parallel is extremely low (likely <10–20 total graded across both services), so a high grade would be a standout.

Cross-Reference to Other Graded Cards

  • Similar 2023-24 Prizm Glitter / low-numbered parallels (and Gold Sparkle /24 variants in later sets) that reach market ungraded or raw typically sell in the $80–$200+ range depending on player popularity. Graded 9.5/10 examples command significant premiums.
  • Broader 2023-24 Prizm base and parallel populations (via PSA/BGS reports) show that defect-free modern foils with sharp corners and clean edges routinely hit 9.5–10. Off-centering or surface marks are the most common downgrades—neither is present here.
  • No publicly documented graded examples of this exact McDaniels Glitter /24 were found (consistent with its scarcity), but higher-print Prizm Glitter cards and other SSP foils follow the same pattern: pristine examples like this one grade at the top end.

Summary & Recommendation

This is a high-end example of a scarce Glitter Prizm parallel. It presents as pack-fresh with elite eye appeal and no handling wear. 

Please Note: This card is housed in a custom display slab for superior protection and presentation. While the label may include descriptive details, this is not a grade from a third-party professional service (such as PSA, BGS, or SGC). The card is being sold as Raw/Ungraded. Please review the high-resolution photos provided to make your own assessment of the card’s condition before bidding or purchasing.
