Condition & Value Assessment

Condition Grade

Near Mint (NM)

Estimated Market Value

Raw: $3 - $8; PSA 9: $40 - $60; PSA 10: $400 - $600+

Recent Sales

Raw copies typically sell for under $10. Graded PSA 8 copies sell for around $20, while PSA 9s reach around $50. High-end pristine copies (PSA 10) are premium due to condition sensitivity of 80s card stock.

Condition Details

Centering appears slightly shifted to the left (roughly 60/40). Corners look relatively sharp based on the image, edges look clean with no major visible whitening or chipping.

Grading Recommendation

Only worth grading if the card is flawlessly centered and free of surface print dots (common for this year). Based on visible centering, it may likely grade a PSA 8, which provides limited value upside compared to grading costs.

Card Description

Front features a photo of Ray Guy in his Raiders uniform. Bottom left includes Raiders team name and helmet logo. Bottom right ribbon specifies name 'Ray Guy' and position 'P'. Back contains career stats and bio info (not visible in image).

Notable Features

Features the iconic 1982 'hockey stick' border design. Ray Guy is famously the first punter ever inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Authentication Notes

Authentic Topps card stock. Rosette pattern in the printing process and the specific blue/yellow ink tones are consistent with 1982 production.
