The 1998 Finest Dirk Nowitzki Non Protected Refractor #234 is a Basketball card (Non Protected Refractor parallel) released in 1998. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $8.00.

An ungraded copy is worth around $8.00, a PSA 9 around $308.32, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $895.00, a pristine BGS 10 around $1 and164.00. That's roughly a 112× 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 $8.00 and top grades reaching $895.00, 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.
