It has been examined by many experts - a consensus of opinion is it was a 1 off prototype done by Topps - not even making it to a testing phase. To date it is the only example of any player I have ever seen.

So is that essentially akin to a Dice Game Mantle— yet signed also by Clemente. Mind blown. Is that considered the Grail of all Clemente pieces?
