About this card

Luka Dončić’s 2018 Panini Prizm Basketball card is number 280 in that release. Prizm is Panini’s chromium brand, printed on reflective card stock. Most base cards also come in color parallels called Prizms, from the familiar Silver to short-printed colors, and the parallels keep the base card’s number.

How to identify it

Tilt the card under a light. A base card has a plain chrome finish, while a Silver or color Prizm shows a distinct pattern or tint across the front, and numbered parallels carry a serial number, usually on the back.

The issue stays 2018 · Panini Prizm Basketball. These are research checks, not a condition assessment of a specimen.

Raw / ungraded

Match the issue: Match the full year or season, release, number and named edition to this reference. Ask for readable images of the actual item’s front and back.
Record visible condition: Inspect corners, edges, centering and surface in suitable photographs or in person. Record damage or unanswered questions without assigning a predicted professional grade.
Keep authentication separate: Ungraded does not establish authenticity or mean “never authenticated.” A protective case alone does not establish a professional condition grade.

Professionally graded

Read the complete label: Record the grading company, exact issue, card grade and any qualifiers or designation. Keep an autograph grade separate from the card’s condition grade. An authentication-only designation may have no numeric condition grade.
Compare the certification record: Use the company’s official lookup and compare its issue details and available images with the actual item, label and holder. A matching certification number alone does not establish that an offered item is genuine.
Compare within the stated scale: Retain the company’s exact grade name and number. Different companies and grade designations are not automatically equivalent; a numeric label does not establish a current price.

A source-linked reference or historical scan does not authenticate the card you are considering. CardRoster supplies no assigned grade, certification or price for it.
