The 1981 O-Pee-Chee Bob Gainey #176 is a Hockey card released in 1981. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.10.

An ungraded copy is worth around $1.10, a PSA 9 around $19.51, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $115.40 and a pristine BGS 10 around $150.00. That's roughly a 105× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.

Is it worth grading?

With raw copies near $1.10 and top grades reaching $115.40, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.
