Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM 7)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $2 - $5; PSA 9: $15 - $25; PSA 10: $40 - $70
Recent Sales
Raw copies typically sell for $1.50 to $4.00 on eBay. PSA 9 graded copies sell around $20, while PSA 10 gem mint examples command $50+.
Condition Details
The card is inside a heavily scratched plastic top loader and sleeve, making exact surface assessment difficult. Left and right centering looks relatively good. Softness or white spots are visible along the upper left edge and bottom corners.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended to grade. Standard 1990s food issue insert card with low raw value. Grading fees (PSA/SGC $15-$25+) would likely exceed the incremental value gain unless guaranteed to receive a Gem Mint 10 grade.
