Collector-focused appeal here, as the Diamond Kings DK Signatures line is one of Donruss's more respected autograph sets, and Rich Harden was a legitimate pitching prospect at the time this was printed.

Bowman Chrome Prospects refractors from this era have held collector interest, and the Gold Refractor parallel is serial-numbered to 50, making this a low-print-run card of a former Mets prospect for anyone building a player collection or chasing vintage Bowman Chrome parallels on a budget.
