The 1998 Upper Deck Ovation Dirk Nowitzki #79 is a Basketball card released in 1998. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $15.03.
An ungraded copy is worth around $15.03, a PSA 9 around $45.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $183.75 and a pristine BGS 10 around $192.91. 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?
With raw copies near $15.03 and top grades reaching $183.75, 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.
