Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
$1.00 - $3.00 (Raw) / $15.00 - $25.00 (PSA 10)
Recent Sales
Consistently sells for $1-$2 on eBay as a common retail insert. PSA 10 copies have recently settled between $18 and $24 including shipping.
Condition Details
Card is stored in a binder page without a penny sleeve, which often leads to surface scratches. Centering appears slightly heavy toward the top edge. Corners show minor softening visible through the plastic.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of grading ($15-$25) exceeds or equals the market value of a Gem Mint copy. These are very high-volume retail inserts.
Card Description
Features Julio Rodriguez of the Seattle Mariners in a batting follow-through pose. The design features a cosmic 'burst' background with holographic foil treatment. The 'Stars of MLB' logo runs vertically along the right side.
Notable Features
Holographic foil surface; part of the retail-exclusive Stars of MLB insert set; secondary year card following his 2022 rookie debut.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Topps product. The foil refractive patterns and font styles are consistent with 2023 Topps manufacturing standards.
