The 2012 Bowman Chrome Chris Carpenter Green Refractor #169 is a Baseball card (Green Refractor parallel) released in 2012. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.09.
An ungraded copy is worth around $1.09, a PSA 9 around $15.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $33.57 and a pristine BGS 10 around $44.00. That's roughly a 31× 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 ($1.09) and top-graded ($33.57) 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.
