One autograph per sealed box. UNIT CHECK (EXTRACTION_SPEC 5.4): distinct cards - 12 rows, counted individually, rendered under checklistinsider's heading "Rated Rookie Signatures Premium Box Set Checklist" with the summary "12 cards. /15 or less. 1 per box set. Versions: Blue /15; Gold /7; Green /3." (https://www.checklistinsider.com/2024-25-donruss-optic-premium-basketball-factory-set), rendered independently by checklistcenter under the heading "2024-25 Donruss Optic - Base Rated Rookies Signatures Premium Box Blue Set" summarised "12 Cards - Serial Numbered #/15" (https://www.checklistcenter.com/2024-25-donruss-optic-basketball-card-checklist/), and rendered independently AGAIN by tcdb, which gives the set its own sid: "2024-25 Donruss Optic - Premium Box Set Blue", "Total Cards: 12", Notes "Serial numbered to 15" (https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/551032/x). THIS IS THE FIRST SEASON OF THE LINE IN WHICH TCDB CATALOGUES THE BOX SET'S AUTOGRAPH AT ALL. All three renderings print the SAME twelve card numbers: 302, 303, 304, 305, 306, 307, 311, 313, 319, 324, 325, 333 (302 Reed Sheppard, 303 DaRon Holmes II, 304 Donovan Clingan, 305 Devin Carter, 306 Matas Buzelis, 307 Dalton Knecht, 311 Bub Carrington, 313 Jared McCain, 319 Zach Edey, 324 Tidjane Salaun, 325 Tristan da Silva, 333 Ja'Kobe Walter). The run is non-contiguous, so it is not a 1..N renumbering. THE TWELVE NUMBERS DO NOT COLLIDE WITH THIS RELEASE'S BASE RUN of 1-300, as in 2023-24 and unlike 2019-20 through 2022-23; they sit in the 301-350 block the PARENT release files as its Rated Rookies Signatures set, and all twelve match data/optic-bkb-2024-25/insert_cards.csv on number, player and team - a SECOND repackaging overlap, 12 of 12, raised at G-005. SET NAME: the sources disagree - checklistinsider prints singular "Rated Rookie Signatures Premium Box Set", checklistcenter prints "Rated Rookies Signatures Premium Box Blue Set" (plural, with "Blue" being the colour version), and tcdb names only the colour tiers ("Premium Box Set Blue/Gold/Green") and has no page for the un-coloured set. The plural form written here matches checklistcenter, matches opticpremium-bkb-2022-23 and -2023-24 for the same set of the same line, and matches data/optic-bkb-2024-25/sets.csv - see G-015. THE SET'S NUMBERING IS A PROPERTY OF THE SET AND IS RECORDED IN WORDS ONLY HERE: sets.csv has no print_run column and the figure must not be written into card_count (EXTRACTION_SPEC 2.2). "/15 or less" is a CEILING, not a print run, and is not written as one anywhere. The three numbered versions - Blue /15, Gold /7, Green /3 - are carried as set-scope rows in parallels.csv, each now corroborated by tcdb's own Notes lines "Serial numbered to 15", "Serial numbered to 7" (https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/551033/x) and "Serial numbered to 3" (https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/551034/x). Card-level checklist deliberately not written here (CHASE_CHECKLIST_SPEC).

This set has a recorded count of 12, but the card-by-card checklist is not yet in the catalogue. That's an open research question, not a statement that no checklist exists. If you know a source that documents it, tell us — a pointer to one is exactly what closes these.
