Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3 - $8; Graded (PSA 9): $15 - $25
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for similar late-2000s Sage HIT low-tier defensive player autographs range from $2 to $10 including shipping. Maualuga was a notable player but lacks high-end collectible demand.
Condition Details
The card shows decent centering, though the top-bottom alignment is slightly favor-shifted. Corners appear sharp through the top loader, and edges look clean. Minor surface scuffing on the top loader should not be confused with the card surface.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of grading ($15-$25+) far exceeds the potential market value of the card. It is best kept in a top loader for a personal collection.
Card Description
The card features Rey Maualuga during his collegiate career at USC, where he played Linebacker wearing jersey #58. The design includes a blue and black color scheme with the 'HIT' logo in the upper left and a sticker autograph prominently centered.
Notable Features
Features a blue ink sticker autograph with his jersey number '#58' inscription. It is a pre-draft rookie year insert from the Sage HIT product line.
Authentication Notes
Autograph is on a factory-applied sticker typical of Sage products from this era. The 'Authentic Autograph' text on the sticker and card stock consistency match known 2009 Sage HIT production standards.
