Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Poor (P 1)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.25 - $1.00; Graded: Not recommended for grading
Recent Sales
Recent sales of raw 1985 Topps Fred Lynn cards in heavily damaged or creased condition typically sell for under $1.00 or are included as part of bulk common lots on eBay.
Condition Details
Severe surface crease running horizontally across the middle of the card, noticeable wear on corners and edges, off-center framing with a thicker white border on the right side.
Grading Recommendation
Not worth grading. The prominent crease significantly reduces the grade to Poor/Fair, meaning the grading fees would far exceed the market value of the card.
Card Description
Features Fred Lynn in his Baltimore Orioles uniform, playing center field. The card features a close-up portrait shot of Lynn smiling with an orange team banner reading 'ORIOLES' at the top and a brown diagonal banner with his name 'FRED LYNN' in the bottom right corner, alongside the classic Topps logo in the bottom left.
Notable Features
Standard base card featuring a former American League MVP and Rookie of the Year playing for the Baltimore Orioles.
Authentication Notes
Appears to be an authentic 1985 Topps base card with standard vintage cardstock and printing characteristics, though authentication is not economically viable due to the heavy damage.
