Djordje Mihailovic 2023 Topps Chrome MLS Base Trading Card #65
Topps / Topps Chrome · Collectibles & Antiques > Sports Trading Cards
Era / Decade
2023 (Modern Era). Dated via the uniform style and the 2023 Topps Chrome design pattern.
Material
Chromium cardstock (refractive metallic finish) with a high-gloss coating.
Condition
Good to Very Good. The card shows significant surface wear, specifically 'silvering' or chipping along the bottom edge and potential corner softening. It is not in mint condition due to being unrestrained on a soft fabric surface without a sleeve.
Demand Level
Moderate to Low. While Mihailovic is a known player, base cards (non-refractor/non-auto) have high supply and lower demand compared to parallels or rookie cards.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$0.50 - $2.00 (Low-end to mid-range for a raw, unsleeved base card)
Estimated Retail Value
$4.00 - $6.00 (Original pack-weighted cost based on hobby box prices)
Comparable Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw 2023 Topps Chrome MLS base cards typically range from $0.99 to $1.99 plus shipping. Parallel versions (Refractors, Gold, etc.) sell for significantly more.

Key Features

Distinctive Topps Chrome logo in upper left; authentic MLS hologram and trademark on the reverse (implied); specific refractive sheen of the cardstock. Confidence: High.

Bottom edge shows visible chipping/rough cut; not currently in a protective sleeve/toploader which risks scratches; top-to-bottom centering appears slightly off.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (using the eBay Standard Envelope for cheap shipping), COMC (Check Out My Cards), or localized soccer fan groups on Facebook.
Selling Tips
Place the card in a penny sleeve and toploader immediately to prevent further damage. List as part of a 'Toronto FC' team lot or a 'Djordje Mihailovic' player lot to increase value, as shipping for a single base card often exceeds the card's value.
