The 1997 Finest Embossed Refractor sits at the top of a three-tier hierarchy: base card, standard refractor, and then this — the embossed refractor, numbered to just 263 copies. The embossed treatment means the refractor effect is pressed into the chromium surface itself, appearing on both the front and the back of the card. Most refractors from this era have greened over time as the chromium oxidizes — this copy has not. Only 78 have ever been submitted to PSA across all grades, and just 15 reached a PSA 10.
