Graded GEM MINT 10 by PSA. One of only four examples graded at this lofty level by PSA. Stunning example of Atlanta Braves Hall of Famer Hank Aaron from the 1971 Topps set. The 1971 Topps set is prone to many different problems, including centering issues, print quality, and especially corner and edge chipping. In fact, this is only the second GEM MINT example, of any card, we've offered from this set over the last twenty years! This card is essentially perfect in all respects. The centering is perfect. All four corners are sharp. The corners exhibit no wear or chipping whatsoever, even under extreme magnification, which is particularly remarkable. Perfectly crisp and clean, both front and back. This is a world-class example of Hank Aaron from one of the most condition-sensitive sets ever produced. Opening Bid $25,000.
