Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $2 - $5; Graded (PSA 9): $15 - $25
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies are consistently in the $1.00 to $4.00 range. Graded copies rarely appear on the market due to low value.
Condition Details
Moderate vertical centering issues with a heavy bottom border; light wear visible on the bottom right corner; some surface fingerprints or smudges on the chrome finish.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of grading exceeds the market value of the card as the player is not a high-demand star or hall-of-famer.
Card Description
Player is depicted in a Cleveland Indians uniform, jersey number 32, in a wind-up pitching motion. The card features a black border at the bottom with a 'First Year' Bowman Chrome logo and a facsimile signature across the image.
Notable Features
Facsimile (printed) signature; designated as a 'First Year' card within the Bowman Chrome set; features the Chromium stock.
Authentication Notes
Print quality and card stock appear consistent with 2004 Bowman Chrome production. Facsimile signature is part of the print layer and not hand-signed.
