Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Very Good-Excellent (VG-EX 4)
Estimated Market Value
$0.10 - $0.50 (Raw)
Recent Sales
Bulk lots containing this card usually sell for a few cents per card. High-grade PSA 10 examples can fetch $15-$25, but this specific card would not reach that level.
Condition Details
The card shows significant top-to-bottom centering issues (heavy on the bottom). The edges have visible chipping and roughness, particularly on the left vertical side. Corners show moderate softening/rounding. Surface appears to have some slight scuffing and factory print speckling in the black borders.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The card is a common veteran player from the 'junk wax' era, and the centering/edge wear significantly limits the potential grade. Grading fees would far exceed the value of the card.
Card Description
Dan Meyer is pictured in his Seattle Mariners home uniform, holding a bat. He is listed as a First Base player. The design features the inaugural 1981 Donruss logo in the top left corner with 'Mariners' in a yellow bubble font at the bottom.
Notable Features
This is part of the first-ever baseball set produced by Donruss. It features the classic 1980s Seattle Mariners 'trident' logo on the cap.
Authentication Notes
Authentic 1981 Donruss stock. The card stock is characteristic of early Donruss issues, which often featured rough 'hairy' cuts on the edges and imperfect centering.
