Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade

Estimated Market Value
Raw: $30 - $60 / Graded PSA 3: $50 - $80
Recent Sales
High-grade PSA 8/9 versions sell for $500 - $3,000+. Recent eBay sales for raw copies in low-to-mid grade range between $40 and $100 depending on eye appeal.
Condition Details
Heavy edge wear especially on the right side, rounded and soft corners, surface staining/dirt on bottom left border, and significant top-to-bottom centering issues. Visible debris or humidity damage on the surrounding cards suggests potential surface issues.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading in current condition. The significant edge damage and surface staining would likely result in a grade of 3 or 4, where the grading fees would potentially exceed the value added.
Card Description
Baltimore Orioles first baseman Eddie Murray shown in his rookie season profile. He is wearing the classic white home uniform with orange and black accents. The card features a distinct '1B' position circle and large 'ORIOLES' block lettering at the top.
Notable Features
This is the Canadian O-Pee-Chee version of Eddie Murray's rookie card, which is significantly rarer than the standard Topps version. It is identified by the O-Pee-Chee logo in the top right black banner.
Authentication Notes
The O-Pee-Chee version is printed on lighter, whiter card stock than Topps. The rough cut edges visible on the side are characteristic of the wire-cut method O-Pee-Chee used, which is a common sign of authenticity for this set.
