2021 Topps Chrome Formula 1 Fernando Alonso Sapphire SP Variation Gold #9 value & prices

The 2021 Topps Chrome Formula 1 Fernando Alonso Sapphire SP Variation Gold #9 is a Racing card (Sapphire SP Variation Gold parallel) released in 2021. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $21.50.

An ungraded copy is worth around $21.50, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $70.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $91.00. That's roughly a 3.3× 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?

The spread between raw ($21.50) and top-graded ($70.00) copies is fairly tight, so grading this card only makes financial sense for truly flawless copies — or for collectors who simply prefer slabbed cards for protection and display.
