Which Erling Haaland card is the real rookie card

Haaland's first cards came out in 2019-20, the season he moved from Red Bull Salzburg to Borussia Dortmund, so his rookie cards show either club. Topps issued the Champions League (UEFA) and Bundesliga licensed sets that hold his main RCs: Topps Chrome UCL #74, Topps Chrome Bundesliga #72 and Topps Finest UCL #91. Cardboard Connection notes the base Topps Chrome UCL #74 has no RC logo while the Sapphire Edition version adds one. Album stickers from that season are recorded as rc false.

Grading Erling Haaland cards

A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) or BGS 9.5 is the top grade most collectors look for; it means sharp corners, clean edges, centered printing and an unmarked surface. A graded card and a raw one are different cards to look up.

How PSA, CGC and Beckett grade

PSA

Top grades:
Gem Mint 10, then Mint 9 and NM-MT 8.
Half grades:
1.5 through 8.5 since February 2008; there is no PSA 9.5.

One overall grade on the label. Centering weighs heavily in it.

CGC

Pristine 10 (virtually flawless, 50/50 centering), then Gem Mint 10 and Mint+ 9.5.
Half grades:
Yes, from Fair 1.5 up to Mint+ 9.5.

Authentic (AU) for a genuine card that cannot take a number; Authentic Altered (AA) for one that was altered.

How to identify your Erling Haaland card and check what it sold for

  1. Find the year and maker on the back of your Erling Haaland card, and the card number, usually top or bottom on the back.
  2. Check the front and back for a serial number (for example 23/99) and for a colored or patterned finish: those mark a parallel, which is a different card from the base version.
  3. Look for the RC logo or the word Rookie. A card from before the first pro season, such as a Bowman 1st or a college card, is a prospect card, not a rookie card.
  4. Note any grade on the slab label (PSA, BGS, SGC, CGC). A raw card and a graded one are different listings.
  5. Search sold listings for that exact year, set, number, parallel and grade. What a card sold for is a better guide than any asking price.
