Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Very Good (VG 3)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $5 - $12 | PSA 3: $15 - $25
Recent Sales
Recent sales for mid-grade raw copies (VG to EX) typically range from $10 to $20 on eBay. Higher grades like PSA 7 or 8 reach significantly higher values ($100+).
Condition Details
The card exhibits significant flaws including a noticeable crease in the upper right corner, soft/rounded corners, edge chipping, and centering that is shifted heavily to the left. There are also visible surface print dots/snowing on the yellow background.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading due to the visible crease and softening of the corners. The cost of grading would likely exceed the market value of the card in this condition.
Card Description
Wes Unseld is pictured in his Baltimore Bullets uniform holding a basketball. The card features a vibrant yellow background with the team name 'BULLETS' in large blue block letters slanted at the bottom. His name and position 'CENTER' are printed in red at the very bottom.
Notable Features
Features Hall of Famer Wes Unseld. Not a rookie card (his RC is 1969-70 Topps). Part of the iconic 1972 Topps set design known for its bold colors and large block lettering.
Authentication Notes
The card stock appears consistent with 1970s Topps cardboard, showing natural browning/toning on the edges. The print pattern and halftone dots are consistent with authentic 1972 Topps production.
