Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Average. Brilliant is not a widely known international brand, but that is precisely what makes it interesting for niche collectors. Heraldic symbols, stylish design, and the limited Russian production give the product a unique feel.
-
Condition assessment: Unopened, very good condition, cellophane in place, corners not folded, excise sticker original.
-
Historical data and popularity: „"Brilliant" was produced in Russia as a premium alternative for the local market. Due to limited circulation and low export volumes, this line quickly disappeared, so packs from this period remain only in collector's hands.
