Why This Card Matters

Paxton Schultz was a **14th-round pick, 443rd overall, in 2019** out of Utah Valley University, making him **only the third Utah Valley player ever to reach the major leagues**. He **debuted for Toronto on April 20, 2025** and worked **24.2 innings with 28 strikeouts and a 4.38 ERA** across 13 appearances that season — which is why 2025 is his rookie-card year. He has since struck out **49 batters in 43.1 career innings, a rate of 10.2 per nine**. This is his base paper **rookie card** in 2025 Topps Heritage High Number, printed on the **1976 Topps design**.

Paper vs Chrome & Parallel Note

2025 Topps Heritage High Number rebuilds the **1976 Topps design** across #501-725. This is the **base paper card**: cream, off-white **uncoated cardboard** border measuring RGB roughly 247/246/233 with visible paper fibre, no foil, no colour border and no chrome. That measurement is not theoretical — **the Chrome parallel of this exact card number is also in this batch** and was compared side by side; it reads 236/241/234 on a smooth coated stock with a different Topps product code. **Not serial numbered**, all four edges of both sides checked. **Not a short print:** #590 sits in the regular High Number base run, and the SP tail is #701-725 only. The **RC shield is present**. Back code CODE#CMP117878 (the final digits are at the resolution limit and could read 117870; the 1178 prefix is solid).
