The 2016 Topps Archives Base Set Harmon Killebrew Operation Desert Shield #242 is a Baseball card (Operation Desert Shield parallel) released in 2016. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $36.00.
An ungraded copy is worth around $36.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $250.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $325.00. That's roughly a 6.9× 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 $36.00 and top grades reaching $250.00, 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.
