Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $0.50 - $2.00; Graded PSA 10: $25 - $40
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies typically range from $1.00 to $3.00 including shipping. PSA 10 gem mint examples have sold in the $30 range, but high-grade registry demand is low for this specific subset card.
Condition Details
The card exhibits fairly sharp corners and clean edges. Centering appears slightly shifted towards the bottom. There is a small dark speck/imperfection on the top left white border above the image. Surface looks clean without major scratches visible to the naked eye.
Grading Recommendation
Not worth grading. The cost of grading (typically $15-$25) significantly outweighs the market value of the card unless it is a guaranteed PSA 10, and even then, liquidity for the 'Young at Heart' subset is relatively low.
Card Description
Rickey Henderson is shown in his Oakland Athletics uniform performing his signature head-first slide into a base. He is wearing his jersey number 24 (partially visible), a green helmet with the 'A' logo, and yellow socks. The card is part of the 'Young at Heart' subset, which features a white border and stylized vertical typography at the bottom.
Notable Features
Features the 'Young at Heart' subset branding. The bottom of the card lists the years '1979' and '1995' (referencing his career span at that point). Includes the Upper Deck holographic logo on the reverse (not pictured). Henderson is a Hall of Famer and MLB's all-time stolen base leader.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Upper Deck card stock and printing. The typography and gold foil 'The Upper Deck Company' lettering are consistent with 1994 production. No signs of reprint or alteration detected.
