Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $10.00 - $14.00; PSA 10: $45.00 - $60.00
Recent Sales
Raw copies consistently sell for roughly $12 on platforms like TCGPlayer and eBay. PSA 10 copies have recently fluctuated between $50 and $55.
Condition Details
Centering appears slightly heavy on the left and bottom based on the image angle. Edges and corners appear sharp without visible whitening, though surface scratches cannot be fully ruled out without high-res direct lighting.
Grading Recommendation
Moderate recommendation. If the surface is flawless and centering is within 60/40, it is a strong candidate for a PSA 10, which significantly increases value. If it likely grades a 9, the grading fees may exceed the value added.
