Kaboom, Silhouettes and die-cuts — 2022-23 Panini Crown Royale Basketball continues to include the brand’s biggest defining features.
Eight-card hobby boxes include both an autograph and memorabilia card. There’s also a pair of inserts or parallels.
2022-23 Panini Crown Royale Basketball Checklist Overview
The die-cuts start with the base set. Crown Royale got its start in the 1990s with Pacific. Even in the early days, the base cards came cut in the shape of a crown along the top. There have been a couple of interpretations of it since Panini rebooted it, but the same general idea remains.
Parallels include:
- Crystal
- Blue Crystal – /99
- Pink Crystal – /75
- Red Crystal – /49
- Purple Crystal – /25
- Gold Crystal – /10
- Platinum Crystal – 1/1
Leading the way for Crown Royale’s autographs is a new batch of Rookie Silhouettes. The cards start with a generously sized memorabilia swatch that with the main portion of the card, including the signature, layered over top. Prime and Super Prime versions add premium swatches.
Crown Jewel Signatures and Future Kings Signatures, both of which continue the die-cut theme, are among the other autograph inserts on the 2022-23 Crown Royale checklist.
Coat of Arms, Heirs to the Throne, Knights of the Round and new Monarch Memorabilia are among the places to find more relics.
Kaboom headlines the product’s other inserts. Like usual, these bold cards are among the toughest to pull in the product.
Other inserts include Hand Crafted, Pillars of the Game, Rookie Royalty, Sno Globe and Test of Time.
