Elijah Arroyo 2024 Panini Phoenix Football Rookie Card #159
Panini · Collectibles & Antiques > Sports Cards
Era / Decade
2024 (Current Modern Era); evidenced by the 'Phoenix' design and the Rookie Card (RC) logo for the 2024 NFL draft class.
Material
Cardstock with a chrome/metallic finish and refractive foil elements typical of Panini's high-end Phoenix line.
Condition
Very Good to Excellent. The surface appears clean and the coloring is vibrant. However, the card is loose without a sleeve or top-loader, risking edge wear. There is some slight visible softening on the bottom left corner.
Demand Level
Moderate to Low. While 'Phoenix' is a popular brand, the demand for non-autographed, non-numbered base rookie cards for late-round or undrafted players varies heavily based on their on-field performance.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$1.00 - $5.00 (Unadjusted for shipping/grading)
Estimated Retail Value
$4.00 - $6.00 (Original pack entry cost equivalent)
Comparable Sales
Base rookie cards for non-quarterback prospects in the Phoenix 2024 set typically sell for $0.99 to $2.99 as 'buy it now' listings, with higher prices commanded for 'Silver' or 'Color Burst' parallels.
Description
2024 Panini Phoenix Football card featuring rookie Elijah Arroyo in a Seattle Seahawks uniform. The card features a geometric, refractive chrome design with the Phoenix logo at the bottom and the official 'RC' Rookie Card shield in the top right corner. The player is shown mid-run holding a football.
Key Features
Includes official Rookie Card (RC) badge; modern 'card-tech' design with holographic foil effects; popular NFL team (Seahawks); part of the desirable Phoenix hobby/retail set.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The refractive quality of the foil, specific font types used by Panini, and the presence of the NFL and Phoenix logos are consistent with authentic 2024 releases.
Flaws to Note
Minor corner softening on the bottom left. The card is currently being handled without protection (sleeves), which can lead to micro-scratches on the delicate chrome surface.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (using eBay Standard Envelope for low-cost shipping), Mercari, or specialized sports card Facebook groups.
Selling Tips
