Lionel Messi 2004 Panini Mega Cracks RC

The GOAT\'s earliest widely-recognized modern rookie card, issued in the Spanish Panini Mega Cracks set. PSA 10 copies have sold for $50,000+ while raw near-mint examples command $5,000–$15,000. Post-World Cup 2022 and his MLS arrival drove values to new highs — with no ceiling in sight for football\'s greatest ever player.
