1996-97 Topps Finest Joe Smith Heirs #213 w/ Coating PSA 7
Add a distinctive piece of 1990s Finest basketball to your collection with this 1996-97 Topps Finest Joe Smith #213, featuring the original protective coating and professionally graded PSA 7 NM.
The card features Smith during his Golden State Warriors tenure in the bold metallic styling that defined early Finest basketball. The front uses the elaborate Heirs design with bronze-toned framing, foil elements, and the original factory protective coating still present across the card surface.
That coating is an important part of the presentation. Many Finest cards from this era had their peel-off protective film removed over time, while this example remains encapsulated with the coating intact and is specifically identified by PSA as “W/Coating.”
Joe Smith entered the NBA as the No. 1 overall pick in the 1995 NBA Draft, making his early Warriors cards representative of one of the notable young players from the mid-1990s basketball era. While his modern collector market is modest, the appeal of this card comes from its vintage Finest design, intact coating, PSA encapsulation, and increasingly nostalgic 1990s basketball-card aesthetic.
This is a strong fit for collectors focused on Golden State Warriors cards, 1990s Finest, former No. 1 draft picks, PSA slabs, or affordable vintage-era basketball.
