Fleer introduced the Brilliants brand to the gridiron in 1998, bringing an elegant feel with premium, mirror-like cards and leaving a handful of collectors feeling bejeweled along the way. The base set was covered in three parallels – Blue, Gold /99, and the elusive 24-Karat Gold limited to a print run of just /24.
The rainbow reflective holographic gold foil on that last version radiates off the release’s best cards, one of which is Peyton Manning's rookie. This Brilliant offering stands as a pivotal piece of one of the most brilliant quarterbacks in NFL history.
Just one copy of this card in the BGS registry ranks higher than this Mint 9. The strong subgrades on this card include a 10 for Centering and 9.5 for both Edges and Corners.
The certification number on this card has been checked against the third-party grader's online database and is active as of 03/18/2026.
