2005 Topps Chrome John Lackey Black Refractor #176 value & prices

The 2005 Topps Chrome John Lackey Black Refractor #176 is a Baseball card (Black Refractor parallel) released in 2005. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.76.

An ungraded copy is worth around $1.76, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $32.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $42.00. That's roughly a 18× 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 ($1.76) and top-graded ($32.00) 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.
