2008 Topps Chrome Frank Thomas Copper Refractor #168 value & prices

The 2008 Topps Chrome Frank Thomas Copper Refractor #168 is a Baseball card (Copper Refractor parallel) released in 2008. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $22.50.

An ungraded copy is worth around $22.50, a PSA 9 around $16.72, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $80.99 and a pristine BGS 10 around $105.00. That's roughly a 3.6× 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 $22.50 and top grades reaching $80.99, 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.
