2023-24 Panini Mosaic NBA Greats Karl Malone #297 Choice Black Gold Mosaic Prizm /8
Eight copies exist in the world. This is one of them.
The 2023-24 Panini Mosaic NBA Greats Karl Malone #297 Choice Black Gold Mosaic Prizm is serial-numbered /8, making it the second-deepest pull in the entire Choice box parallel rainbow — sitting just above the one-of-one Choice Nebula. Choice Black Gold Mosaic is a Choice box-exclusive parallel, meaning it is not available in Hobby, Fast Break, or any retail format; the only path to this card is tearing a single-pack Choice box and landing one of just eight copies numbered out of the entire production run.
The card itself is part of the brand-new NBA Greats subset (#291–300), one of three thematic subsets — alongside NBA Debut and City Edition — added to the 2023-24 Mosaic checklist for the first time. Karl Malone occupies card #297 in elite company alongside Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal, Tim Duncan, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
The subject needs no introduction. Karl "The Mailman" Malone finished his career as the all-time leader in free throws made and ranks third in NBA history with 36,928 career points. A 2× NBA MVP, 14× All-Star, 11× All-NBA First Team selection, two-time Olympic gold medalist, and 2010 Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, Malone is universally recognized as the greatest power forward of his era.
