Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
$15 - $30 (Raw); $75 - $125 (PSA 9-10)
Recent Sales
Ungraded copies have recently sold on eBay for $18-$25. High-grade (PSA 9) examples have reached $65-$80.
Condition Details
Typical acetate surface scratching visible under direct light; minor edge wear on the right side; corners show very slight softening; centering appears slightly shifted towards the bottom-right.
Grading Recommendation
Only recommended for grading if the surface is free of major scratches. Acetate cards from this era are notoriously prone to surface scuffing which significantly lowers the grade. If it appears flawless, a PSA 10 would see a significant value jump.
Card Description
This card features Detroit Lions Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders in his home blue jersey, carrying the football. The design is part of the 'Z-Plus' insert series, utilizing a clear acetate (see-through) substrate with large, stylized comic-book-style 'Z' graphics and 'BARRY SANDERS' in foil text.
Notable Features
Acetate plastic card stock; Z-Plus insert designation; Hall of Fame player; Detroit Lions team logo at bottom.
Authentication Notes
Authentic SkyBox acetate stock and printing. The foil stamping is consistent with late 90s SkyBox production. No signs of counterfeit reproduction.
