Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM)
Estimated Market Value
$1 - $5 (Raw); $15 - $30 (PSA 10)
Recent Sales
Raw copies of this specific insert set generally sell for under $3. Graded copies are rare due to the relatively low value of the card versus grading costs.
Condition Details
The centering appears slightly heavy toward the left and bottom borders. Edges and corners look relatively sharp from the scan, though minor corner softening is possible upon physical inspection. Minimal surface wear is visible.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The market value of the card in a high grade does not significantly exceed the cost of grading fees and shipping for a modern insert of this type.
Card Description
Features Mike Mussina in his Baltimore Orioles uniform (Number 35) in a pitching follow-through pose. The left side features vertically oriented text reading 'CLASSIC CONFRONTATIONS'. The Topps logo is located in the upper right, and the Orioles team logo is in the bottom right.
Notable Features
Includes the 'Classic Confrontations' vertical branding which was a specific insert subset in the 2003 Topps series highlighting legendary matchups or key players.
Authentication Notes
The card appears authentic. The Topps logo, image quality, and print typeface are consistent with early 2000s production standards. The white borders are consistent with the 2003 base design language.
