Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5 - $15; PSA 10: $250 - $400; PSA 9: $40 - $60
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies range from $8 to $20 depending on condition. PSA 10 gem mint copies have consistently sold between $275 and $350 in recent months.
Condition Details
The card exhibits slight bottom-edge wear visible through the top loader. Centering appears slightly heavy toward the top. Surface suggests possible minor light scratches common for this finish, though the top loader obscures fine detail.
Grading Recommendation
Grade only if the surface is flawless. The card appears to have minor edge issues which would prevent a PSA 10 grade. Unless it is a guaranteed 10, the grading costs may exceed the value increase.
Card Description
Features two images of Hall of Famer Tim Duncan in his San Antonio Spurs uniform. The left side shows Duncan in a black away jersey holding a basketball on a wood-grain court background. The right side features a holographic/refractive 'Rookie Experience' action shot. His name and team 'spurs f' (forward) are printed at the bottom right.
Notable Features
Features the 'Rookie Experience' oval logo and the UD holographic logo in the top right. This is one of Tim Duncan's iconic mainstream rookie cards from his debut season.
Authentication Notes
The font, Upper Deck logo hologram quality, and the specific texture of the 'Rookie Experience' insert portion appear consistent with authentic 1997 Upper Deck production.
