The 1997 Ultra Eldridge Recasner Gold Medallion #178G is a Basketball card (Gold Medallion parallel) released in 1997. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $4.05.
An ungraded copy is worth around $4.05, a PSA 9 around $27.02, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $128.27 and a pristine BGS 10 around $167.00. That's roughly a 32× 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 $4.05 and top grades reaching $128.27, 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.
