Sports memorabilia shoppers often face a simple question: should you spend a few dollars on a single-player relic or go all-in on a numbered multi-player card? The four Panini cards in this roundup show how wide that gap is, with prices ranging from $1.49 to $65. Each card fits a different collecting style, so the right pick comes down to your league preference, player loyalty, and how much you want to spend.
Quick Take
The four-card lineup breaks into two tiers. On the budget side, the 2019 and 2025 Panini Prizm cards for Darius Slayton and Jayden Higgins are NFL insert relics with a rookie tag and memorabilia piece. On the higher end, the Panini National Treasures Denny Hamlin Track Gear is a NASCAR card out of 99, and the Panini Immaculate Collection card is an NBA relic featuring Paul George, Joel Embiid, and Tyrese Maxey. Every card in this comparison is ungraded.

Product Notes
Panini 2024 National Treasures Track Gear Denny Hamlin
Racing fans get a clear focus with this National Treasures release. The Track Gear insert is numbered 30 of 99, which makes it a serial-numbered option within a limited print run. At USD 8.99, it sits in the middle of this price comparison, above the two Prizm rookie cards but well below the $65 NBA relic. The card is ungraded and features a single-driver memorabilia piece from Denny Hamlin. Choose it if you want a NASCAR-themed relic with a numbered slot to chase. The limitation is that it's a one-driver card, so it doesn't offer a multi-player or rookie-level angle.
2019 Panini Prizm Rookie Gear Darius Slayton
This Prizm Rookie Gear card brings a late-2010s NFL rookie into your collection. Darius Slayton of the New York Giants is the featured player, and the insert set adds a memorabilia piece to the rookie designation. The listed price is USD 1.99, which is slightly higher than the 2025 rookie gear card in this roundup. It's a solid choice if you're a Giants fan or want a cheaper, single-player NFL relic without leaving the Rookie Gear family. The trade-off is that it's a base parallel of the set, so the design is straightforward, and the price sits above the other Prizm gear option here.
2025 Panini Prizm Rookie Gear Jayden Higgins
The lowest-priced card in this group is the 2025 Prizm Rookie Gear for Jayden Higgins, listed at USD 1.49. It shares the same Rookie Gear insert family as the Slayton card, with Rookie, Insert, and Memorabilia all showing up in the product details. This is the card to pick if you want a current-season NFL rookie relic for less than two dollars. This card focuses on a single NFL rookie and a memorabilia piece, while the higher-priced cards add serial numbering or a multi-player design. If you're just starting a football memorabilia collection, this is a low-cost first step.
2024-25 Panini Immaculate Collection Immaculate Triple Memorabilia
The biggest investment in this roundup is the Immaculate Triple Memorabilia card at USD 65.00. It features three Philadelphia 76ers-Paul George, Joel Embiid, and Tyrese Maxey-on a single triple-relic insert that is serial-numbered to 99. That makes it the only multi-player card here and the only one with a triple-memorabilia format. If the NBA and specifically the 76ers are your focus, this card delivers a higher-end collectible with a numbered print run. The limitation is the price: it's the most expensive option in this group by a wide margin, so it's best suited for someone ready to make that kind of spend.
Final Recommendation
- For the smallest outlay and a current NFL rookie, choose the 2025 Jayden Higgins Rookie Gear.
- For an NFL rookie from a late-2010s season at a still-low price, the 2019 Darius Slayton Rookie Gear works.
- For NASCAR fans who want a serial-numbered relic, the 2024 National Treasures Denny Hamlin is the only racing card in the mix.
- For NBA collectors who want a triple-player relic with a low serial-numbered print run, the Immaculate Triple Memorabilia is the clear pick.
