2009 Upper Deck First Edition Carmelo Anthony #36 value & prices

The 2009 Upper Deck First Edition Carmelo Anthony #36 is a Basketball card released in 2009. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.69.

An ungraded copy is worth around $1.69, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $20.25 and a pristine BGS 10 around $26.00. That's roughly a 12× 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?

The spread between raw ($1.69) and top-graded ($20.25) copies is fairly tight, so grading this card only makes financial sense for truly flawless copies — or for collectors who simply prefer slabbed cards for protection and display.
