2023-24 Immaculate

• G-001 checklistinsider.com states "Patch Autographs: 54" cards while checklistcenter.com's full checklist section for the same set states 53 -- one-card disagreement, unresolved. Recorded card_count=53 (checklistcenter.com's card-level section count) in sets.csv.
• G-002 checklistinsider.com states "Premium Patch Autographs: 86" cards while checklistcenter.com's full checklist section for the base Premium Patch Auto Set states 79 -- checklistcenter.com separately lists Red (74), FOTL (85), and Platinum (82) variant sections, any of which could explain checklistinsider.com's summarized figure. Recorded card_count=79 (checklistcenter.com's base-section count) in sets.csv; the four differing counts across variant sections were kept as separate rows rather than folded into one parallel tier because a true parallel tier should share the same card roster/count.
• G-003 "Patch Autographs Jersey Number" (31), "Patch Autographs Red" (36), "Premium Patch Autographs Red/FOTL/Platinum" (74/85/82), and "Immaculate Dual/Triple Memorabilia Prime" (15/10) are each listed by checklistcenter.com as their own numbered checklist sections with card counts that DIFFER from their plain-named counterpart set. This is the same ambiguity the 2022-23 sibling flagged for "Patch Autographs Red": it is unclear whether these are genuine color/tier parallels of the base set (in which case they belong in that set's notes per the PARALLEL SCOPE format) or independently-curated short-print subsets. Kept as separate sets.csv rows rather than guessed into a parallel-tier note, consistent with 2022-23's resolution of the same ambiguity.
• G-004 The 2022-23 sibling's "Holo #/3" base parallel tier does not reappear under that name in any source checked for 2023-24 (checklistinsider.com, cardsmithsbreaks.com, checklistcenter.com, cardboardconnection.com all use "Bronze" for the #/3 slot instead). Treated as resolving the prior season's flagged single-corroboration risk in the direction of Holo NOT being a real recurring tier name for this product line, but no source explicitly confirms or denies that 2022-23's "Holo" and this season's "Bronze" are/aren't the same underlying tier renamed.
• G-005 rookie_flag left UNKNOWN for all 100 base cards: no fetched source marked explicit 'RC' designations on the base checklist.
• G-006 Release date corroborated by five independent sources (checklistinsider.com, cardsmithsbreaks.com, checklistcenter.com, tcdb.com, gogts.net) at 2025-04-09 hobby / 2025-04-03 FOTL -- no disagreement found, logged here only to record the sourcing depth given how unusually late this date runs relative to the 2023-24 season label (about 9 months after the following 2024-25 season began).
• G-007 Many insert/autograph set card counts (all rows tagged 'single-source (checklistcenter.com only)' in sets.csv) rely solely on checklistcenter.com's per-section counts; a second full-checklist source with matching section-by-section detail could not be found for these sets. cardboardconnection.com's dedicated review page for this release had no populated checklist at fetch time ("Checklist: TBA").
• G-008 PER-SET PARALLEL TREES NOT CAPTURED for this release: 0 of 52 non-base sets carry an enumerated 'Has its own parallel tier (...)' note, so none could be promoted into scoped parallel rows. On premium Panini lines nearly every insert and autograph set carries its own colour tree - two sibling Immaculate seasons captured 21 and 18 respectively, and National Treasures captured 190 across six seasons. This is a COVERAGE gap in what was researched, not a statement that these sets lack parallels. Resolving it needs a re-run over this release's sets, not a parse of existing notes. [REPAIRED 2026-08-27: a targeted repair pass resolved 19 of 52 non-base sets with sourced tier colours; 33 remain unannotated because no source publishes their tier colours. The gap stays OPEN at the reduced figure rather than being closed - partial coverage is not coverage.]
• G-009 PARTIAL RESOLUTION of G-008: 19 of 52 non-base sets now carry a sourced 'Has its own parallel tier (...)' note (Rookie Patch Autographs, Rookie Patches, Clutch Time Signatures, Heralded Signatures, Immaculate Ink, Immaculate Signatures, Jubilee Signatures, Modern Marks, Patch Autographs, Premium Patch Autographs, Retro Patch Autographs, Retro Premium Patch Autographs, Scorers Club Signatures, Shadowbox Signatures, Sneaker Swatches Signatures, Sophisticated Signatures, Virtuoso Autographs, Statement Signatures, Immaculate Blockchain), sourced mainly from checklistcenter.com's per-set 'Parallels:' lines, cross-checked against checklistinsider.com and (for the first ~9 auto sets alphabetically covered by that page's default render) cardsmithsbreaks.com; tcdb.com corroborated individual color tiers for Shadowbox Signatures (Gold, Green) and Virtuoso Autographs (Red) via standalone per-color checklist pages, but tcdb's Inserts.cfm navigation page for this specific product was NOT usable as the brief anticipated -- it is polluted with unrelated prior-season 'Update' cross-listings and did not cleanly enumerate this product's own subsets. The remaining 33 non-base sets (all the plain narrative inserts -- All-Star Weekend Brand Logos/Laundry Tags, Brand Logos, Dual Autographs, Dual Logoman Autographs, Immaculate All-Star Lineage/Award Winners/Championship Runs/Dual Memorabilia(+Prime)/Legends/Milestones/Quad Memorabilia/Rookie Introductions/Triple Memorabilia(+Prime), Insignias, Jumbo Basketball/Sponsor Patch/Rookie Jumbo Brand Logo Autographs, Jumbo Patches FOTL, Logoman Autographs, Nameplate Nobility Signatures, Patch Autographs Jersey Number/Red, Premium Patch Autographs Red/FOTL/Platinum, Quad Autographs, Rookie Championship Tags Autographs, Immaculate Signature Moves, Title Winners Autographs, Triple Autographs) had NO parallel/color-tier line in any source checked and were deliberately left unannotated rather than guessed -- for the four already-broken-out color rows (Patch Autographs Jersey Number/Red, Premium Patch Autographs Red/FOTL/Platinum) this was confirmed explicitly: checklistcenter.com's own per-section pages for those rows state 'No parallels listed', i.e. no further sub-tier exists beneath them. One source (cardsmithsbreaks.com) was caught fabricating identical placeholder parallel text for a run of ~12 sections beyond the point where its page actually stops rendering checklist tables (confirmed by direct re-query of specific sections e.g. 'Statement Signatures', 'Immaculate Milestones') -- that fabricated batch was discarded entirely and not used. [REPAIRED 2026-08-27: a targeted repair pass resolved 19 of 52 non-base sets with sourced tier colours; 33 remain unannotated because no source publishes their tier colours. The gap stays OPEN at the reduced figure rather than being closed - partial coverage is not coverage.]
• G-010 NO CHECKLIST WRITTEN for 8 sets.csv sets because tcdb.com carries a subset page for each but states 'The checklist for this set is not yet available', and the only other sources that publish rosters for them (checklistcenter.com) renumber this release's coded sets 1..N and therefore cannot supply a printed card_number. Sets and sets.csv counts: Dual Autographs (42, tcdb sid 511531), Dual Logoman Autographs (27, sid 511532), Immaculate All-Star Lineage (10, sid 511538), Immaculate Championship Runs (10, sid 511543), Immaculate Milestones (10, sid 511552), Immaculate Signature Moves (18, sid 511556), Jumbo Basketball Autographs (10, sid 511568), Logoman Autographs (52, sid 511575). Base URL form: https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/<sid>/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---<subset>. 0 of 181 stated cards captured for these eight sets.
• G-011 IMMACULATE BLOCKCHAIN (18 per sets.csv) ABSTAINED. tcdb https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/511540/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---Immaculate-Blockchain lists 16 rows whose card-number column is entirely bare ordinals (1-6, 8-10, 12, 13, 16-20). Every other plain insert in this release that tcdb has catalogued is letter-coded (IAW-, ILE-, BL-, I-), so a wholly numeric run here is more consistent with tcdb placeholder ordinals than with printed numbers -- but because no coded row is present in this set there is no in-set sort-position test to settle it, and no marketplace listing showing a printed Immaculate Blockchain card number could be found. Per the spec (a hole-y numeric run proves nothing; only a marketplace listing settles it) no rows were written rather than risk 16 silently-wrong identifiers.
• G-012 RETRO PATCH AUTOGRAPHS (27 per sets.csv) NOT FOUND ON tcdb for this release. tcdb's own-subset block for this product runs sid 511524-511675 in strict alphabetical order and jumps straight from 'Remarkable Rookie Jerseys Triple Red' (sid 511618) to 'Retro Premium Patch Autographs' (sid 511619) with no Retro Patch Autographs entry; the two other out-of-block subsets that exist (Virtuoso Autographs family, sid 509265-509269) were checked and the neighbouring sids 509261-509264 and 509270 are 404. checklistcenter.com does carry the set but renumbers it 1..N, which this release's calibration proved unusable for card_number. 0 of 27 captured.
• G-013 SOPHISTICATED SIGNATURES (27 per sets.csv) NOT FOUND ON tcdb for this release, same mechanism as G-012: tcdb's alphabetical own-subset block runs from 'Sole of the Game' (sid 511657) straight to 'Special Event Jumbo Materials' (sid 511658) with no Sophisticated Signatures entry. checklistcenter.com and cardsmithsbreaks.com both list the set, confirming it exists, but neither prints the card codes. 0 of 27 captured.
• G-014 PARTIAL CAPTURE CAUSED BY tcdb PLACEHOLDER ORDINALS. On these sets tcdb's checklist mixes real printed codes with bare ordinals that sort OUT OF POSITION among the coded rows -- the placeholder signature the spec describes (e.g. Brand Logos renders 'BL-TAT' between '3' and '5'; Retro Premium Patch Autographs renders '29', '5', '6' BEFORE all its RPP- codes). Only the coded rows were written; the ordinals were omitted rather than stored as identifiers. Written/stated-in-sets.csv: All-Star Weekend Brand Logos 1/5; All-Star Weekend Laundry Tags 1/13; Brand Logos 4/22; Insignias 7/18; Jumbo Sponsor Patch Autographs 2/27; Nameplate Nobility Signatures 10/23; Premium Patch Autographs FOTL 1/85; Premium Patch Autographs Platinum 1/82; Premium Patch Autographs Red 1/74; Quad Autographs 3/10; Rookie Championship Tags Autographs 9/21; Rookie Jumbo Brand Logo Autographs 7/28; Title Winners Autographs 2/15; Triple Autographs 2/15. For the three Premium Patch Autographs colour rows the missing codes COULD have been derived by matching player names against the parent Premium Patch Autographs set (which shares the PPA- codes, as Patch Autographs / Patch Autographs Red / Patch Autographs Jersey Number demonstrably share IPA- codes) -- this was deliberately NOT done, because several of their players do not appear in the parent capture at all and the rest would be inference rather than evidence.
• G-015 PARTIAL CAPTURE CAUSED BY PAGE TRUNCATION, not by missing data: the tcdb checklist pages for the two largest sets are cut off by the fetch before their last rows. Premium Patch Autographs: 71 coded rows written, tcdb states 80 and sets.csv 79; the capture ends at PPA-WNG (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/511593/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---Premium-Patch-Autographs). Jumbo Patches FOTL: 72 coded rows written of 98; the capture ends at JP-MAX (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/511569/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---Jumbo-Patches). The remaining rows exist on the page and are recoverable by a fetch that pages or filters the table.
• G-016 CARD-COUNT DISAGREEMENTS between sets.csv and tcdb.com's 'Total Cards' for the same subset, recorded rather than resolved; sets.csv was NOT modified. sets.csv vs tcdb: Clutch Time Signatures 20 vs 19; Immaculate Blockchain 18 vs 16; Immaculate Rookie Introductions 19 vs 20 (tcdb's 20 all carry printed IRI- codes, so 20 rows were written); Modern Marks 31 vs 30; Patch Autographs 53 vs 50 (this is a THIRD figure alongside the 53/54 disagreement already logged as G-001); Premium Patch Autographs 79 vs 80 (a third figure alongside G-002's 79/86); Scorers Club Signatures 19 vs 18; Virtuoso Autographs 28 vs 27 (tcdb's Red, Gold, Green and Platinum tiers of the same set each state 28, so tcdb is internally inconsistent here).
• G-017 DUPLICATE CARD CODE INSIDE ONE SET: tcdb's Scorers Club Signatures checklist (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/511636/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---Scorers-Club-Signatures) renders the code SCS-DMC on TWO different rows, once for DeMarcus Cousins and once for Donovan Mitchell. Both expand plausibly (DeMarCus / Donovan MitChell) and no marketplace listing was found that settles which player actually carries SCS-DMC. Because schema.sql enforces UNIQUE (set_id, card_number), writing both is impossible and writing either would be a coin flip, so BOTH rows were omitted: 14 rows written for this set, not 16.
• G-018 SET-NAME DIFFERENCES between sets.csv and tcdb for the same subset. Rows were filed under the sets.csv spelling byte for byte and no set was renamed or added. sets.csv -> tcdb: 'Jumbo Patches FOTL' -> 'Jumbo Patches' (card counts agree exactly at 98, which is what justified the mapping); 'Title Winners Autographs' -> 'Title Winners' (counts agree at 15); 'All-Star Weekend Brand Logos' -> 'All Star Weekend Brand Logos' (hyphen); 'All-Star Weekend Laundry Tags' -> 'All Star Weekend Laundry Tags' (hyphen).
• G-019 CROSS-SEASON FINDING, AND A CORRECTION TO release.csv's NOTES. release.csv asserts that the 'Team Slogans' phantom 'was NOT found in any source's published checklist this season ... REJECTED as not applicable, consistent with all four prior seasons never publishing it'. That negative is WRONG for tcdb: tcdb carries a real 14-card subset '2023-24 Panini Immaculate Collection - Team Slogans' at sid 511672 (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/511672/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---Team-Slogans), sitting in this product's own alphabetical subset block between 'Swatches Red' (511671) and 'The Standard' (511673). This matches the same finding already recorded for 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22, where G-001 claimed Team Slogans never shipped while tcdb carries a checklist every season. sets.csv has NO 'Team Slogans' row and none was added, per instruction. Recommended follow-up: re-check the prior seasons' Team Slogans gaps and decide centrally whether this line's Team Slogans subsets belong in sets.csv.
• G-020 tcdb SUBSETS WITH NO sets.csv ROW for this release (28 base-named subsets, well above the 6-7 per season seen elsewhere in this line). NO SETS WERE ADDED. All sit in tcdb's own-subset block for sid 465402; URL form is https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/<sid>/2023-24-Panini-Immaculate-Collection---<subset>. Name (tcdb Total Cards, sid): Extraterrestrial (6, 511533); Immaculate Quad Memorabilia Prime (8, 511554); Jumbo Patches Jersey Number (71, 511570); Jumbo Patches Nameplate Nobility (74, 511571); Jumbo Patches Team Logo (63, 511572); Logoman (48, 511574); Massive Memorabilia (50, 511576); Materials (33, 511577); Patches Jersey Number (49, 511592); Remarkable Jerseys (20, 511599); Remarkable Rookie Jerseys (38, 511604); Remarkable Rookie Jerseys Dual (15, 511603); Remarkable Rookie Jerseys Quad (7, 511610); Remarkable Rookie Jerseys Triple (10, 511615); Rookie Dual Logoman (15, 511623); Rookie Jumbo Basketballs (15, 511624); Rookie Logoman Autographs (39, 511628); Rookie Patch Autographs Jersey Number (38, 511632); Rookie Patch Autographs Tags (39, 511634); Rookie Patches Logoman (13, 511635); Sneak Peek Brand Logo (55, 511644); Sneak Peek Heel Logo (61, 511645); Sneak Peek Laces (70, 511646); Sneak Peek Tongue Logo (64, 511647); Sneaker Swatches (25, 511648); Sole of the Game (22, 511657); Special Event Jumbo Materials (5, 511658); Special Event Materials (no checklist yet, 511659); Standout Memorabilia (15, 511660); Swatches (32, 511668); Team Slogans (14, 511672 -- see G-019); The Standard (50, 511673). Note that a COMPLETE 50-card TST- coded checklist for 'The Standard' was captured during this pass and is available at sid 511673 if that set is ever added to sets.csv. Each of these also carries its own colour tiers on tcdb (Gold/Green/Platinum/Red/FOTL), which is independent evidence bearing on the still-open G-008.
• G-021 SOURCE CALIBRATION RESULT for this release, recorded so a later pass does not repeat the work. POSITIVE: tcdb.com Checklist.cfm prints the real printed codes -- confirmed against two marketplace listing titles, '2023-24 Panini Immaculate Collection - Sneaker Swatches Signatures Hunter Tyson #SNS-HTY /49 (AU, MEM, RC)' (https://www.ebay.com/p/2349580304) matching tcdb's SNS-HTY, and '2023-24 Panini Immaculate #145 Victor Wembanyama 2 Color Patch RC 9/99 Spurs' (https://www.ebay.de/itm/366002921822) matching the numeric 141-153 Rookie Patches block. NEGATIVE: checklistcenter.com renumbers this release's coded sets 1..N -- its Immaculate Award Winners section prints 1-10 for the identical ten players tcdb numbers IAW-BRA..IAW-STE -- and sportscardspro.com renumbers The Standard 1..50 where tcdb prints TST- codes; neither was used for card_number, though checklistcenter's rosters WERE used to corroborate players and to confirm the numeric 101-153 rookie block card-for-card (including its missing 117). PREFIX DRIFT FROM THE 2021-22 SIBLING, confirming the spec's warning: Heralded Signatures HS- -> IHS-, Immaculate Ink ICI- -> II-, Immaculate Legends IL- -> ILE-, Patch Autographs PA- -> IPA-, Sneaker Swatches Signatures SSS- -> SNS-, Shadowbox SBS- unchanged, Scorers Club SCS- unchanged, Modern Marks MM- unchanged. Jubilee Signatures uses ILJ-, Insignias uses a bare 'I-' prefix, and Nameplate Nobility Signatures uses 'IN-' -- none derivable from the set name. Codes are NOT derivable from initials in this release either: IS-DAV is Dave Bing, IS-FSH is Derek Fisher, IS-BOB is Bob Dandridge, SNS-JDT is Trayce Jackson-Davis, PPA-DAN is Jordan Miller, PPA-TAE is Keyontae Johnson, VA-MLO is Carmelo Anthony, VA-MAR is Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf.
• G-022 FABRICATION SIGNAL FOUND AND DISCARDED, recorded because the artefacts may recur. Before any row was written, the working scratchpad for this task already contained 23 unsourced checklist files named for the sets in this assignment (e.g. 'Clutch Time Signatures.txt', 'Rookie Patch Autographs.txt', 'Sophisticated Signatures.txt', 'Virtuoso Autographs.txt'). They carried plausible-looking codes with the right-looking prefixes but are not this release: 'Rookie Patch Autographs.txt' listed 101 Kennedy Chandler, 102 Max Christie, 103 Jalen Duren, 105 Paolo Banchero, 106 Simone Fontecchio -- all 2022 draftees, i.e. the 2022-23 roster, where tcdb and checklistcenter.com independently agree 101-103 are Toumani Camara, Jalen Wilson and Dereck Lively II. 'Clutch Time Signatures.txt' held 24 rows of CTS- codes that share not one code with the 19 tcdb actually prints. Caught by the spec's temporal-impossibility and copy checks; every one of those files was quarantined and NONE was used. Every row in insert_cards.csv for this release was fetched fresh from tcdb Checklist.cfm during this pass and the sample re-fetch (Immaculate Legends and Immaculate Signatures, verbatim-quoted re-request) matched what was written byte for byte.
• G-023 RETROACTIVE RECOVERY SWEEP 2026-09-07 using two tcdb endpoints discovered after this release's checklist line was completed: Gallery.cfm?PageIndex=N (paginates at 10 cards/page, states the set's true total, prints the real codes, renders NO team) and Errors.cfm/sid/<N>/<slug>. METHOD: every page was index-aligned against an overlap row already on disk before any row was written, and every rendered list was counted by hand -- no fetch self-report and no tcdb 'Total Cards' header was trusted on its own. No existing row was altered, reordered or re-derived. ERRORS.CFM FINDING (release-independent, recorded in all six seasons): Errors.cfm returned 'no entries' on every Immaculate sid probed across four seasons (2019-20 sids 252463 and 252475, 2020-21 sids 294055, 294075 and 294128, 2024-25 sids 560431 and 564989). Immaculate carries no Nb/Nc variation rows, so that endpoint recovers nothing on this line and the TBD/TBA tokens it was hoped would resolve remain unresolved. [SUPERSEDED IN PART -- see G-015, whose PAGE TRUNCATION shortfall is now closed. G-014 is CONFIRMED, not superseded: its three Premium Patch Autographs colour rows are NOT truncation, see below.] RECOVERED 31 rows: Jumbo Patches FOTL 72 -> 98 of 98 (Gallery pages 8-10 of sid 511569, header 'Total Cards: 98', indices 71-72 = JP-MAR/JP-MAX matched disk); Premium Patch Autographs 71 -> 76 (sid 511593 page 8, header 'Total Cards: 80', index 71 = PPA-WNG matched disk; the four remaining rows on that page render the literal 'TBD' for Russell Westbrook, Sasha Vezenkov, Julius Erving and Ricky Council IV and stay withheld). THE 1/85, 1/82 AND 1/74 TRIO IS NOT TRUNCATION AND IS NOW POSITIVELY DIAGNOSED. Premium Patch Autographs FOTL (sid 511594, header 'Total Cards: 85'), Platinum (sid 511596, 'Total Cards: 82') and Red (sid 511597, 'Total Cards: 74') render a BARE ORDINAL in the card-number column for essentially every row. Read verbatim: FOTL page 5 = '46','47','48','49','50','51','52','53','54','55'; Red page 5 = '51'..'60'; Platinum page 6 = '57'..'66'. The decisive evidence is FOTL page 9, the LAST page of an 85-card set, which reads '91' Luka Doncic, '92' Jamal Crawford, '94' Oscar Tshiebwe, '98' Ricky Council IV, '99' Leaky Black -- a sequence that has HOLES and RUNS PAST the set's own size. An 85-card set cannot carry printed numbers up to 99 in a run that is dense from 1, so these are Panini's internal sequence numbers, exactly the artefact CHASE_CHECKLIST_SPEC warns about, and not printed card numbers. Gallery.cfm cannot help because the tokens are what tcdb actually stores; Errors.cfm returns no entries on this line. G-014's refusal to derive these from the parent Premium Patch Autographs set was correct and is left standing: 1/85, 1/82 and 1/74 remain. OTHER CANDIDATES RE-SWEPT AND FOUND ALREADY COMPLETE: Patch Autographs (sid 511586 page 5, header 'Total Cards: 50' = 49 written + one 'TBD' Chris Bosh; sets.csv's 53 is a third figure alongside G-001's 53/54); Sneaker Swatches Signatures (sid 511653 page 5, 'Total Cards: 48' = 45 written + three TBD); Scorers Club Signatures (sid 511636 page 2, 'Total Cards: 18' = 14 written + the two SCS-DMC rows G-017 omitted + two TBD); Insignias (both Gallery pages of sid 511563, 'Total Cards: 18' = the 7 I- codes already on disk plus 11 bare ordinals). None yielded a row. FABRICATION CHECK: Jumbo Patches page 9 was re-fetched through a different valid slug (https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/511569/Panini-Immaculate-Collection-2023-24-Basketball?PageIndex=9) with a quotation-marked verbatim prompt and returned the identical ten tokens.
