The 1979 Topps John Smith #16 is a Football card released in 1979. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $1.77.
An ungraded copy is worth around $1.77, a PSA 9 around $24.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $37.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $48.00. That's roughly a 21× 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 ($1.77) and top-graded ($37.00) 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.
