The 1996 Pinnacle Starburst Frank Thomas #157 is a Baseball card released in 1996. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $3.87.
An ungraded copy is worth around $3.87, a PSA 9 around $15.92, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $141.29 and a pristine BGS 10 around $184.00. That's roughly a 37× 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 $3.87 and top grades reaching $141.29, 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.
