The 1989 Upper Deck Craig Biggio #273 is a Baseball card released in 1989. In ungraded condition it carries an estimated value of about $2.05, with professionally graded copies commanding more.

Condition is everything here — an ungraded copy is worth around $2.05, a PSA 9 around $12.02, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $49.83 and a pristine BGS 10 around $65.00. That's roughly a 24× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.

Collector's notes

Cards from this era were printed in enormous quantities during the hobby's boom years, so raw copies are plentiful — but strict grading separates the true gems from the masses, and top grades remain hard to pull off.

Baseball remains the hobby's most tradition-rich category, where rookie cards, flagship Topps issues, and low-population grades anchor long-term demand.

Is it worth grading?

The spread between raw ($2.05) and top-graded ($49.83) 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.

When choosing a grader, PSA slabs typically resell fastest, BGS rewards truly pristine copies, and SGC/CGC offer faster turnarounds — compare each label's value in the grade table above.
