Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Good (G 2)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.10 - $0.25; Graded: High-grade specimens (PSA 10) can reach $15-$25, but this specific card has negligible market value due to condition.
Recent Sales
Recent sales for base cards from this set in similar condition typically occur in bulk lots or at 'common' prices ($0.05 - $0.10) in local shop bins.
Condition Details
Visible damage includes significant corner wear and fraying at the bottom corners, several minor creases on the bottom edge, a small surface indention/hole near the bottom left border, and overall soft edges. Centering is shifted slightly to the left.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of the grading fee significantly exceeds the value of the card, and the physical condition is too poor to attain a high enough grade to justify the expense.
Card Description
The card features Tim Newton, a defensive lineman for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, shown in his white 'Creamsicle' era jersey (number 56) with his arms raised celebrating a play. The design features a white outer border with a inner yellow and black frame. The 'Topps' logo is in the upper right, and the team name is in a red box at the bottom right.
Notable Features
Features the classic Tampa Bay Buccaneers 'Bucco Bruce' helmet logo on the player. This is a standard base card from the junk wax era.
Authentication Notes
The card appears to be an authentic 1991 Topps product. The printing patterns, card stock (grey back typical of the era), and font styles match known authentic examples from this set.
