Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $30.00 - $55.00; Graded PSA 10: $150.00 - $225.00
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies range from $35 to $60 depending on immediate condition; PSA 10 copies have sold for upwards of $200 in the last year.
Condition Details
The centering appears slightly heavy toward the right edge. Bottom right corner shows minor white ticking. Surface shows light glare but edges appear relatively clean for a raw card. Slight softening on top right corner.
Grading Recommendation
Potentially worth grading if corners and edges are sharper than image suggests. As a short print (SP) variation of a top-tier superstar, a PSA 10 grade significantly increases liquidity and value.
Card Description
Auston Matthews is shown wearing the Toronto St. Pats throwback jersey. He is a Center (C) for the Toronto Maple Leafs. The card features a full-bleed photo design with the Upper Deck logo in the top right and the Maple Leafs logo in a silver circle on the bottom left.
Notable Features
This is a 'St. Pats' jersey variation, which is considered a short print (SP) compared to the standard Series 2 base card. It features the iconic green and white Toronto St. Pats heritage uniform.
Authentication Notes
Consistent font for Upper Deck Series 2; silver foil stamping on the logo and name bar appears authentic to 2018-19 production standards.
