The 2012 Topps Update Ichiro Gold Sparkle #US272 is a Baseball card (Gold Sparkle parallel) released in 2012. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $9.99.
An ungraded copy is worth around $9.99, a PSA 9 around $37.49, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $89.90 and a pristine BGS 10 around $117.00. That's roughly a 9.0× 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 $9.99 and top grades reaching $89.90, 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.
