2004 Topps Chrome Gold Refractor LeBron James /99 #23 PSA 9 MINT

Sometimes even the greats take a little time to get going. While Lebron won Rookie of the Year in his freshman season, his second year represented a significant statistical leap. The forward progress earned him his first All-Star Game berth, where he notched 13 points, eight rebounds, and six assists, leading the East to an easy victory. Shortly after that, LeBron registered his first 50-point game and began flirting with triple-doubles on a nightly basis. In his sophomore campaign, Lebron tallied 27.2 PPG, 7.4 rebounds, and 7.2 assists, all significantly higher than his rookie season. The 20-year-old LeBron also led the league in minutes played and moved the needle by helping the Cavs to their first winning record in nearly 10 years. LeBron’s second-year 2004-05 Topps Chrome card features him leaping toward a reverse slam dunk. This /99 Gold Refractor reflects all the raw athleticism that generated so much excitement around the league and among fans. It's nothing short of a cornerstone card that combines an iconic brand, an immensely popular parallel, rarity and an absolutely stunning photo that will ensure it stands out forever. Just nine copies in the PSA registry carry a higher grade than this Mint 9.
