Notes

tcdb lists this tier as its own set under the parent product inventory (https://www.tcdb.com/Inserts.cfm/sid/338927/2021-22-Panini-Contenders-Optic), sid 343437 (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/343437/2021-22-Panini-Contenders-Optic---Sophomore-Contenders-Autographs-Orange). cardboardconnection: "PARALLEL CARDS: Blue #/75, Orange #/25, Gold #/10, Gold Vinyl 1/1." (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2021-22-panini-contenders-optic-basketball-nba-cards). This tier was not fetched directly; its print run rests on the cardboardconnection ladder above, calibrated against tcdb at six independent points elsewhere in this release (Superstars Gold SN10, Uniformity Gold Vinyl SN1, All Star Aspirations Blue Cracked Ice SN75, Veteran Ticket Red SN35 / Orange SN15 / Gold Wave SN10). See gap G-016. [SUPERSEDED 2026-08-19: channel resolved to 'hobby' with cited evidence; note above predates the channel pass]
