Panini Prizm · THE parallel everyone wants · about a year
This is the parallels entry for Prizm Silver — one of 75 card types rated on appreciation, liquidity, accessibility and risk instead of being given one vague grade.
Both of the upside numbers are strong here — appreciation 92, liquidity 95. That pairing is rare enough to be the reason this entry exists, and rare enough that the price normally reflects it.
Accessibility of 40 means you'll pay somewhat over the sensible number but not absurdly so. Worth watching, because this score moves faster than any of the other three.
Set against the 12 parallel card types scored here, its appreciation of 92 ranks 1st of 12, liquidity 95 ranks 1st, accessibility 40 ranks 6th, and risk 18 is the 2nd-lowest. The closest thing to it on the numbers is Topps Chrome Refractor, which scores 92 and 92 on the same two axes — if you're weighing one against the other, the difference is in the reasoning rather than the scores.
A one-year horizon means you're betting on a single body of work — one season, essentially. That's a much narrower bet than a career, and it should be sized like one.
At 18, this is one of the calmer entries in here. Read that as relative: the floor under any card is whatever the next person will pay, and that number can move a long way in a month.
Every entry gets four separate scores instead of one grade, because a single grade hides the thing you needed. Full explanation in the guide: what Kabooms, Downtowns and Color Blasts are worth.
