Cal Ripken Jr Topps Project 2020 Card $130 This Cal Ripken Jr. Topps Project 2020 card is a premium collector's item designed by world-renowned jeweler and artist Ben Baller. Featuring card number 60 in the limited series, this artistic reimagining of Ripken’s 1982 Topps rookie card showcases a striking black, grey, and neon orange color palette complemented by Ben Baller's signature iced-out aesthetic and "Charm City" script. The card is housed in its original Topps factory-sealed magnetic one-touch case with a holographic security seal to ensure its authenticity and pristine condition. This specific release had a limited production run of 18,970, making it a highly sought-after piece for fans of the Baltimore Orioles legend and modern sports art collectors. Priced at $130, this item represents a unique intersection of luxury jewelry design and baseball history, perfect for any high-end sports card portfolio. Condition: The card appears to be in Near Mint to Mint condition, as it remains housed in its original Topps Project 2020 protective acrylic magnetic case with the security seal intact. The surface, edges, and corners of the card are protected from handling, though there may be minor scuffs or dust on the exterior of the plastic holder. This specific release is card number 60 in the series, featuring artwork by Ben Baller. As a modern printed trading card, it does not contain precious metal content and is composed of premium thick paper stock with a high-gloss finish. The historical context relates to the Topps Project 2020 initiative, which commissioned 20 different artists to reimagine 20 iconic rookie cards from baseball history; this card is an artistic interpretation of Cal Ripken Jr.'s 1982 Topps rookie card. The strike type is a standard modern industrial printing process rather than a minted coin strike. There is no third-party professional grade assigned from services like PSA or BGS, as the card is presented in its original factory-sealed distribution case.
