Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM)
Estimated Market Value
$150.00 - $300.00 (Raw); $1,500.00 - $2,500.00 (PSA 10)
Recent Sales
Raw copies consistently sell between $150 and $250. PSA 9 copies have recently sold for approximately $450-$600, while PSA 10 examples command a premium of over $1,500 due to his legendary status and the difficulty of finding clean surfaces.
Condition Details
Surface shows slight horizontal print lines or glare from the lighting. Centering appears slightly shifted to the left and bottom based on the internal chrome framing. Corners appear sharp but there is potential minor edge silvering common for this set.
Grading Recommendation
High Recommendation for PSA or BGS. This is a very iconic early Ronaldo card. If it holds an 8 or better, the value increases significantly. An 8-9 grade is the most likely outcome given the visible surface lines.
Card Description
The card features Brazilian striker Ronaldo Luis Nazário de Lima posing with a soccer ball in a suit, set against a holographic stadium background. The back typically includes his stats from the Dutch Eredivisie (PSV) and Spanish La Liga (FC Barcelona/Inter Milan context).
Notable Features
Features a high-gloss Chrome finish. Includes the 'Stadium Club Chrome' logo in the bottom left corner and the FIFA World Player of the Year / Golden Ball emblem in the bottom right corner.
Authentication Notes
Authentic Stadium Club Chrome cards from this era have a thick card stock and a very specific 'refractor-like' shine even on base cards. The logo font and the crispness of the stadium backdrop details are consistent with genuine 1998 Topps production.
