Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $30.00 - $55.00; PSA 10: $150.00 - $225.00
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies have fluctuated between $35 and $60 depending on the prospect's performance. PSA 10 sales for other top prospects in this set average roughly 3-4x raw value.
Condition Details
The card appears to favor the left side in terms of horizontal centering. The top-right corner shows slight softening. Some minor surface micro-scratching is visible on the foil sunburst background, which is common for this thick card stock.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate Recommendation. As a 'Case Hit' insert for a top-tier prospect like James Wood, a high grade (PSA 10) significantly boosts liquidity and value. However, centeredness and corner sharpness issues visible in the image suggest a potential PSA 9, which may only narrow the profit margin after grading fees.
Card Description
James Wood is depicted in a batting stance wearing a Washington red jersey and helmet. The design mimics a cereal box labeled 'Crunch Time' against a sunburst background. The card lacks MLB logos due to Panini's licensing, showing 'Washington' rather than the Nationals team name.
Notable Features
Features the 'Crunch Time' cereal-themed insert design, which is a popular short-print case hit in the Donruss product line. It highlights Wood's status as a top Washington prospect.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Donruss stock. Features correct foil stamping, consistent font for the 'Crunch Time' logo, and standard Panini card stock thickness for this specific insert series.
