2013 Panini Contenders Rookie Ticket Autographs Variations Guide
How to Spot Variations
When it comes to recognizable rookie cards, Contenders Rookie Ticket Autographs have one of the biggest followings in the hobby. Besides the ticket-focused design, they're known for their deep checklists that offer signatures of many overlooked and fringe players. 2013 Panini Contenders Football is no different. Not only does it have more than 130 autographed rookie cards, but there are just as many Rookie Ticket Autograph variations further adding to the chase.
Shop for 2013 Panini Contenders Football Rookie Ticket Autograph variations on eBay.
Like the normal autographs, variations come with a handful of parallels: Playoff Ticket (#/99), Cracked Ice (#/21), Printing Plates and Championship Ticket (1/1).
From the front, some of these variations are extremely tough to spot. Arms adjusted slightly, eyes shadowed or not shadowed -- stuff like that. Also, some card numbers have different players entirely. But there's an easy way to spot them using the back of the card. Regular versions have stars in the corners of the box with the helmet. 2013 Panini Contenders Rookie Ticket Autograph variations do not.
While this makes spotting variations easy if you have them in-hand, it might not help if you're shopping online. That's okay. We've done the work for you.
Click on the tabs at the top to sort through the massive checklist. We've included notes on how to tell the difference between regular Rookie Ticket Autographs and variations.
For the final 40 cards in the set, the on-card Rookie Premiere players, added side-by-side comparisons of both versions (except for redemptions).
