Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
$150 - $250 (Raw), $350 - $500 (PSA 8), $1,200+ (PSA 9)
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies range from $160 to $225 depending on the level of black border chipping. PSA 8 copies have sold for approximately $450.
Condition Details
The card shows visible chipping on the black borders, which is extremely common for this set. Corner wear is noted on the top right. Centering appears slightly shifted to the left and bottom. Acetate surface may have light scuffs consistent with age.
Grading Recommendation
Only worth grading if the surface is pristine. The black borders on this specific card show enough chipping that it would likely grade a PSA 6 or 7, which may not significantly increase the value over a raw sale given grading fees.
Card Description

Notable Features
First year of the premium E-X2000 brand; features a unique die-cut window and acetate technology. Michael Jordan is the key non-rookie card in the set.
Authentication Notes
The 'SkyBox E-X' logo etching and the specific transparency of the acetate background are consistent with authentic 1996 production. No signs of modern reproduction or 'reprinting' are visible.
