Max Verstappen Autographs & Chrome

The high-end side of a Max Verstappen collection — on-card autographs and chromium refractors across the Topps Formula 1 program, with real in-stock refractor examples and live eBay searches for each.

Once you’re past base cards, the Max Verstappen market splits into the two things serious collectors chase: signatures and shine. Both live in the Topps Formula 1 program, and both trade on the live eBay market — this catalog carries in-stock chrome and refractor examples, but real autographed singles here are eBay-only, and that’s a deliberate honesty call, not an oversight (see the FAQ below).

Autographs

Verstappen autographs come from across the Topps F1 lines, topping out with the ultra-premium Topps Dynasty Formula 1, known for on-card autos and race-used memorabilia. Elsewhere in the program his verified Chrome signature is CAC-VER (present in the 2023, 2024 and 2025 Chrome F1 checklists and 2024 Chrome Sapphire), joined by D75A-VER in 2025 and CMS-VER and 1954-VER in 2024 — several of them running as numbered refractor parallels (a serial like /25 or /5 drives value hard). New to signatures? Our autograph cards guide decodes on-card vs. sticker, redemptions, and how to authenticate before you buy.

The exclusive Topps contract, and the card it produced

In 2025 Topps signed an exclusive autograph, trading-card and merchandise contract with Max Verstappen and marked it with a genuine grail: a one-of-one relic in 2025 Topps Eccellenza Formula 1 containing a piece of his race-worn suit from the fastest lap in F1 history, inserted into a single random pack. That is a real card, announced by Topps — not a hobby rumour. Source: Topps’ product announcement, quoted in the 2025 Topps Eccellenza Formula 1 guide on checklistinsider.com.

Eccellenza is also where his more attainable premium autos and relics sit: autographs average roughly 1:8 boxes in the 2025 edition, and the relic menu includes jumbo race-suit swatches, nameplates, gloves, balaclavas and boots. He appears in the Centurione (100+ Grands Prix), Eccellenza, Essenza, La Passione, La Squadra (with Yuki Tsunoda), Supremo and Trionfo subsets.

Things to check on any auto listing:

  • On-card vs. sticker — on-card is generally preferred.
  • Serial number — lower is scarcer.
  • Grade / authentication — for anything expensive, buy it graded (PSA or SGC) so the signature and condition are certified.

We don’t currently stock a signed Verstappen card ourselves — real autos are scarce and numbered enough that the secondary market (eBay) is where they actually trade. Use the Autographs, Dynasty F1 autos, and Low-numbered autos buttons above to see what’s live right now, filtered to “Sold items” for real recent prices.

Chrome & refractors

The chromium side comes from Topps Chrome Formula 1 and the online-exclusive Chrome F1 Sapphire — a distinct, glassy-finish edition sold separately from retail/hobby Chrome (see the FAQ for how the two differ). These are the refractor “rainbow” — the same card in a run of numbered color parallels, from common refractors up to low-numbered superfractors. Chrome also seeds short-print insert subsets like F1 Award Winners, numbered independently from the base checklist.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between an on-card and a sticker auto?
An on-card autograph is signed directly on the card surface; a sticker auto is signed on a clear label applied to the card. Collectors generally prefer on-card signatures. Premium lines like Topps Dynasty F1 are known for on-card autos. Read each listing to confirm which you're buying.
Are chrome refractors and autographs a smart buy?
They're the scarcer, higher-ceiling part of the market, which is exactly why collectors chase them — but scarcity cuts both ways on price. Buy graded for anything at a serious price point, compare live sold comps, and see our collecting guide for spotting fakes before you commit.
Why doesn't this site sell an autographed Verstappen card directly?
Real on-card and sticker autos are numbered and scarce enough that our in-stock catalog doesn't currently carry one — they trade almost entirely on the secondary market. That's exactly why the eBay buttons above exist: they open live, current listings for autos, Dynasty F1, and low-numbered signed parallels instead of a static shelf that would go stale.
What does "low pop" mean on a graded card listing?
Population ("pop") is the number of copies a grading company (PSA, SGC) has certified at a given grade. "Low pop" means few examples of that exact card, year, and grade combination exist in their records — it's a scarcity signal, not a guarantee of future value. Check the grading company's own population report to verify a seller's low-pop claim before paying a premium for it.
What's the difference between Chrome F1 and Chrome F1 Sapphire?
Both come from the same Topps Chrome Formula 1 photography and checklist, but Sapphire is an online-exclusive edition with a distinct glassy finish and its own parallel run, sold separately from the retail/hobby Chrome product. A Sapphire card and a standard Chrome card of the same driver and year are different products, not the same card in different packaging.
What's a Chrome insert like "F1 Award Winners"?
Insert sets (like F1 Award Winners) are separate short-print subsets seeded inside Chrome F1 packs alongside the base checklist — same Chrome finish, different design and a smaller print footprint than the base card of the same driver and year. They're numbered independently from the base set, so an insert's card number doesn't map to the base checklist.
