2003 Ultra Emmitt Smith Gold Medallion #45 value & prices

The 2003 Ultra Emmitt Smith Gold Medallion #45 is a Football card (Gold Medallion parallel) released in 2003. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.89.

An ungraded copy is worth around $1.89, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $88.88 and a pristine BGS 10 around $116.00. That's roughly a 47× 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 $1.89 and top grades reaching $88.88, 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.
