The refractor finish that makes Topps Chrome cards visually distinctive also makes them more susceptible to surface wear than standard cardstock, which makes the PSA 10 grade on any Chrome card a particularly meaningful achievement. On a Fernando Tatis Jr. rookie, the PSA 10 represents the combination of subject and grade that the market prizes most.

His presence redefined what San Diego Padres baseball meant to a fanbase and a market that had spent years in the background of the National League.
