Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint 8
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3.00 - $8.00; Graded (PSA 10): $40.00 - $60.00
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies range from $2 to $10. PSA 10 copies have recently sold for approximately $45-$55 depending on shipping and auction timing.
Condition Details
The image shows soft corners particularly on the bottom left and top left. Visible surface glare makes detail inspection difficult, but centering appears slightly shifted towards the right border.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading unless the card is flawlessly centered and surface-perfect. As a base card with high print volume, the cost of grading often exceeds the market value for any grade below a Gem Mint 10.
