Top 20 Tina Thompson Cards

2020 Panini Prizm WNBA Tina Thompson Signatures Autograph
The top Tina Thompson card list starts with a huge secret. Despite being a 4x WNBA champion and the league’s second all time points scorer, card manufacturers didn’t produce a Tina Thompson autograph card until 2020! That makes this 2020 Panini Prizm WNBA Signature Series autograph card rather special and sort of rare, especially when you consider she played in the WNBA for 17 years!

2008 Rittenhouse WNBA Tina Thompson All Star Relics /444
While they didn’t produce autograph cards for Thompson, they did produce a number of patch cards of the Hall of Famer. The first of several patch cards to appear on the list, the 2008 Rittenhouse WNBA Tina Thompson All Star Relics is numbered to 444 and features a piece of game worn All Star jersey. This is a great numbered patch card that’s still accessible to everyone in the hobby.

2008 Rittenhouse WNBA Tina Thompson 2008 Women’s National Team /444
Tina Thompson wasn’t just a force in the WNBA. She’s also one of the greatest Olympic basketball players of all time, winning two Gold medals with Team USA in 2004 and 2008. The 2008 Rittenhouse WNBA Tina Thompson 2008 Women’s National Team pays homage to Thompson’s membership on the Gold medal winning team. This card, and other Women’s Olympic team cards have flown under the radar, but it’s only a matter of time before collectors and investors catch on to the stars of one of the most dominant teams ever.

2006 Rittenhouse WNBA Tina Thompson All Decade Team /333
We go from the Olympic team to the All Decade Team for our next card on the list, the 2006 Rittenhouse WNBA Tina Thompson All Decade Team. Number to 333 this one of 10 cards in the insert set honoring the top players from the first decade of the WNBA.

2003 Fleer Ultra Tina Thompson Who I Am Game Used
The second patch card to appear on the list is the 2003 Fleer Ultra Tina Thompson Who I Am Game Used memorabilia card. This card is a variant of the base “Who I Am” insert that features a piece of game used jersey from the Houston Comets legend. With the declining use of authentic and game used memorabilia in patch cards these days, this is one sneaky card that you should have in your collection or portfolio.

2000 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Trophy Case
When most people think 2000 Fleer Ultra WNBA they think about Becky Hammon rookie cards, but I think about the die cut Trophy Case inserts. The 2000 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Trophy Case is a die cut refractor insert that paved the way for many of the eye catching Optic and Prizm WNBA cards we see today. Hard to find in mint condition, these cards are some of the coolest WNBA cards ever made. That’s why this one makes the list.

14.
1998 Pinnacle WNBA Tina Thompson Arena Collection
The next card on our list is the rarest second year card for Thompson, the 1998 Pinnacle WNBA Arena Collection. An early holo foil short print parallel, second year cards continue to rise in popularity and value as many get priced out of rookie year cards. While this hasn’t yet hit WNBA cards, as prices continue to rise, this is the type of card that down the line could see large jumps in value. If you find one of these for sale consider making it yours.

13.
2002 Fleer Authentix Tina Thompson Front Row /100
The first of several numbered base parallel cards to make the list, at number 13 is the 2002 Fleer Authentix Tina Thompson Front Row. Numbered to 100, this card is part of a popular parallel set that has soared in value the past year and a half. While this is not a rookie, auto, or patch, the lack of numbered Tina Thompson cards during an era of overprinting, makes this card an easy add to the list.

12.
2003 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson All Star Review Patch /100
A 9 time All Star, the 2003 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson All Star Review Patch is a numbered to 100 card that recognizes Thompson dominant play during her first six years in the league. Named an All Star each season, this card features an authentic patch from Thompson’s jersey. With only a handful of Tina Thompson patch cards produced and the short print, this card is a must have for die hard WNBA collectors.

2000 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Platinum Medallion /50
The first of three Platinum Medallion parallels to make the list of top Tina Thompson cards, the 2000 Fleer Ultra Platinum Medallion is numbered to 50. Featuring Thompson about to go up for a layout and the Platinum Medallion overlay, this card is an excellent example of one of those under the radar cards that will one day be impossible to find. If you are Tina Thompson collector or investor, get yourself one of these before they disappear.

10.
2004 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Platinum Medallion /25
The next Platinum Medallion on the list is the 2004 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Platinum Medallion. This time numbered to only 25 this card makes the list for the same reason as the other two; rarity. While seventh year cards are usually nothing to write home about, this card, that features Thompson shooting a jumper over a defender, is well worth looking into.

9.
1999 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Platinum Medallion /99
The final Platinum Medallion is also the first one produced for Thompson. The 1999 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Platinum Medallion is also numbered to 99, but being a year earlier, edges out it’s 2000 sister card. There’s not much more to say about this (and the other platinum cards). If you are into low numbered WNBA cards and Tina Thompson, this should be on your buy list.

8.
2003 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Nameplates /50
At number 8 we have a card from the coolest WNBA insert set todate. The 2003 Fleer Ultra WNBA Tina Thompson Nameplates features a license plate design that incorporates both Thompsons last name and a game action image of the current University of Virginia Head Coach. Limited to just 50 copies and given the popularity of the set, this is one card that will hold value over the long term.

6.
2020 Panini Prizm WNBA Tina Thompson Signature Series Gold Prizm /10
As we stated we stated earlier, they didn’t make a Tina Thompson autograph card until 2020, so why not throw another on the list. The highest non-rookie card on the list, the 2020 Panini Prizm WNBA Tina Thompson Signature Series Gold Prizm is numbered to 10 parallel of the base auto. Featuring the ultra popular Gold Prizm design, this auto is the perfect blend of rarity and accessibility. This is super under the radar card which should eventually see its place in the spotlight.

1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Team Development
The first card from Thompson’s rookie year to appear on the list is the 1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Team Development insert card. This card features a smiling Thompson in her Comets practice jersey posing with a basketball for the camera. A highly condition sensitive card due to the foil front and colored frame on the back, this another overlooked Thompson card that should be in more collections and portfolios.

4.
1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Cans
At number 4 we have the most unique Tina Thompson card, the 1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Cans. For the 1997 season Pinnacle decided to release these cans across all sports as part of a marketing gimmick to drive sales. While these cans are not for everyone, they are getting harder to come by (especially sealed) and as a result are continuing to rise in value. If you’re one of those collectors or investors that don’t need everything in a slab, this is a great addition…even if it’s only a talking piece.

3.
1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Rookie Card
The number three card on the list is the official Tina Thompson rookie card. The 1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson features the eventual Hall of Famer underneath the basket fighting for a rebound. It was that same toughness and tenacity that would lead Thompson to average over 6 rebounds per game in her career, to go alongside 15 points. Given concerns about the overprinting of cards from this era, this card lands here in favor of the two shorter print parallels produced.

2.
1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Court Collection Rookie Card
The 1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Court Collection is next on the list. The Court Collection parallel uses the same pictures as the base, but features an added foil layer and Court Collection lettering. A popular set with new and old WNBA collectors alike, these cards continue to increase in value. If you are in the market for a Tina Thompson rookie card, this one, or our number one card, are the ones to chase.

1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Executive Collection Rookie Card
At number one on our list of top Tina Thompson cards is the 1997 Pinnacle Inside Tina Thompson Executive Collection Rookie Card. While this card is not numbered, it is the rarest of the parallels produced this year. Featuring a Prizmatic overlay similar to today’s Mojo parallels, this card condition is sensitive and getting harder to find in mint condition. With the popularity of WNBA cards on the rise and demand for rookie cards from the games greatest player at an all time high, this is one card you can add that should only rise in value over time.
