MJ Topps RC Graded ?

[ace e]

This may cause some debate and comments are welcome.
I know that WCG are not the best graders.
The question is - Is this The first Topps MJ rookie card (according to WCG it is)?
I bought it for ........ $5 COD .

that is from 92/93 Topps Archives a set dedicated to the rookies they missed between 1981 and 1992...not a rookie card but a reprint of what the 84/85 topps baseball cards looked like, so tahts what his rookie card would have looked like if topps had been producing basketball then

that makes sense but because its the first MJ card they produced does that not classify it as a rookie (WCG graded it as one).

Technically its not even his "topps rc" because regular Topps was produced in the same year with MJ in the set and they havent really graded it has a rookie, it says "1984 Topps Rookie" which is what it would be a reprint of...

That's nice for $5.00

 

[AndrewG23]

nice card for $5.00. well done.

 

[tss501]

Nice for 5$. I think they always say XRC when talking about that card.

I think you overpaid...

It's not a RC, it's just a base card.

i am sure thr grading would of cost more than $5.
Do Topps have a Jordan RC ?
My interpretation is that the first card produced of a player in the NBA would be there rookie (correct me if i am wrong).

Your interpretation is spot on Ace, but Jordan's RC is from 86/87 Fleer, his first card release in a main stream set, he also has cards in the Star Releases from 1984 (his true rookie year) but these werent a main stream release and arent considered his true RC

Topps didnt produce cards between 1981 and 1992, so Jordan doesnt have a Topps RC....

i agree with what your saying but what i am trying to say is that if this is the first MJ card Topps produced then this would be a Topps's rolleyes: ) MJ rookie card (my interpretation).

 

[mattyj]

Even by that interpretation, Regular Topps 92/93 would be his "topps rc" not topps archives, just my thoughts...
