Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint 8
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $1.00 - $3.00; Graded (PSA 10): $20.00 - $30.00
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for similar 2023 Topps foil parallels of veteran players range from $0.99 to $2.50 plus shipping.
Condition Details
Centering appears slightly heavy towards the bottom and right edges. Front corners show minor softness typical of foilboard stock. Surface shows standard light handling without major scratches visible in the image.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The cost of professional grading (PSA/BGS) generally exceeds the market value of a veteran non-short-print parallel unless it is a high-profile rookie or hall-of-famer.
