Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT 8)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $30 - $55 / PSA 10: $150 - $225
Recent Sales
Comparable sales on eBay for raw copies typically land between $35 and $50. PSA 10 gem mint examples have recently sold for upwards of $200 due to Ohtani's historic 50/50 season.
Condition Details
The centering appears slightly heavy on the right side. Corners look relatively sharp, but potential surface micro-scratches cannot be ruled out due to the image lighting and angle. No visible creases or major staining.
Grading Recommendation
Worth grading if the surface is clean. As an SP of the game's biggest star in his first Dodgers flagship Topps card, a PSA 10 grade significantly increases market value beyond the grading fee cost.
Card Description
Shohei Ohtani is depicted in his Los Angeles Dodgers home white uniform (Jersey #17) at bat. The card features the 'LAD' team abbreviation in the top left, the Dodgers logo in the bottom left circle, and his position 'Designated Hitter' at the bottom right. The design includes the 'Topps 75' anniversary logo watermark.
Notable Features
This is a Short Print (SP) variation featuring Ohtani in his Dodgers uniform, which was highly sought after upon release in 2024 Series 2 as his primary base card in Series 1 featured him in an Angels uniform.
Authentication Notes
The card exhibits authentic Topps 2024 design elements, including the holographic foil 'Topps 75' logo and standard card stock texture. No signs of counterfeiting are present.
