The 1997 Upper Deck Defining Moments Los Angeles Lakers #343 is a Basketball card released in 1997. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $3.41.

Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $3.41 and top grades reaching $199.99, 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.
