Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM)
Estimated Market Value
Raw (NM): $2 - $8; PSA 9: $40 - $60; PSA 10: $250+
Recent Sales
Raw copies typically sell for under $5. High-grade PSA copies see significant premiums due to the set's notorious chipping and centering issues.
Condition Details
Card appears relatively sharp but centered heavily toward the bottom-right (O/C). Slight surface glare from the binder sleeve prevents full assessment of micro-scratches.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading unless searching for a high registry score. Centering is likely to prevent a grade higher than PSA 7/8.
