Fleer introduced the Brilliants brand in 1998, bringing an elegant feel with premium mirror-like cards and leaving a handful of collectors feeling bejeweled along the way. The scarcest among the set’s three parallels features a rainbow-reflective holographic gold foil, and Fleer appropriately limited production of the 24-Karat Gold cards to only 24 examples.
When it comes to Shaquille O’Neal, basketball card print runs were about the only things associated with the big man that featured limited production.

In the rare instances they come up for sale, Diesel’s scarcest inserts and parallels from his playing days, including this issue, draw more attention than the big man in the post, ensuring this brilliant Brilliants is an enticing target.
This NM 7 is a pop 2 in the PSA registry with just one copy ranking higher.
