Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8+)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $10 - $20; PSA 10 (Gem Mint): $50 - $70
Recent Sales
Recent eBay sales for raw copies range from $8 to $15, while PSA 10 graded copies have stabilized in the $60 range following high initial volume.
Condition Details
The card appears well-centered with sharp corners visible through the top loader. No surface scratches or print lines are immediately apparent, though the protective sleeve and top loader may obscure minor surface details. Left-to-right centering seems slightly biased towards the right border.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate. Only worth grading if the card is a likely PSA 10 candidate to maximize value over the current $19 grading fee. If it has surface dimples or minor corner wear, it is better left raw.
Card Description
Victor Wembanyama is featured in his San Antonio Spurs white home jersey, jersey number 1. He is shown handling a basketball during a game. The card features a clean white border with the 'Topps' logo in the upper right and 'SPURS' text running vertically on the left.
Notable Features
First Topps card featuring Wembanyama in his NBA Spurs uniform. While Panini holds the exclusive NBA license for 'Prizm' and 'Donruss', Topps captured this 'Topps Now' moment. Does not feature the official 'RC' shield but is widely considered a rookie-year commemorative card.
Authentication Notes
High print quality consistent with Topps Now on-demand printing. The high-gloss finish and card stock appear authentic to the 2023-24 release.
