In his young NFL career, Joe Burrow has repeatedly proven himself worthy of recognition as one of the most poised and precise quarterbacks in the league. And though you have plenty of rookie cards to choose from, only a few shine like this Gold Wave parallel numbered to 17. It received more than 50 bids in Goldin's firstever Weekly Auction, affirming the sought-after status of the coldblooded signal-caller.

Featuring a superb tri-color patch and PSA 10 grade, this National Treasures Patrick Mahomes II RPA was the most expensive piece in Goldin's first Weekly Auction by far, commanding a hammer price of $156,000. With each successive deep playoff run by the Kansas City Chiefs, Mahomes continues to distance himself from his rivals in terms of prominence and desirability in the hobby.

This ultra-sleek, rarely seen Ja Morant Panini Prizm Draft Picks Black Prizm collectible represents a star entry in the inaugural Goldin Weekly Auction. Morant has come to be regarded as one of the most coveted subjects in the basketball collecting category, and this singular debut-year piece has achieved PSA's highest grading assessment. As Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies continue to blossom as perennial NBA Finals contenders, high-grade 1/1 examples — even ones in his college uni — will forever be coveted.
