Which LeBron James card is considered his 'true' rookie card?

Thanks,

I can't believe this but I don't even own a single James card.

Just wanted to say hi.

In the modern world of sports cards, there are no true rookie cards (if you mean which "one" card is the true rookie). There are many dozens of officially designated rookie cards for each modern player. Maybe you should rephrase your question to ask which is the most desirable--in which case some of the modern basketball experts could tell you which 2 or 3 rookie cards are Lebrons' most desired or valuable.

I would say anything in the 2003-04 product

I don't mean to be smart but what's that? About 150 different RC's?

Yeah pretty much but I think that it all falls under the rookie card umbrella which is a joke in my not so humble opinion.
One of the main reasons I have taken a break from ripping modern product and have gotten back to collecting stuff that I grew up with.
Can't go wrong with graded Milwaukee Brewers team sets from 1977-82!

Just about every major brand, base issue from 2003/04 is considered his RC. Everything from UD MVP to Exquisite. But like any other years, the inserts and parallels are not considered RC's even though they are from his rookie year.

Hope that helps.
