The 1996 Topps Laser John Smoltz #62 is a Baseball card released in 1996. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $3.50.

An ungraded copy is worth around $3.50, a PSA 9 around $26.97, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $129.37 and a pristine BGS 10 around $168.00. That's roughly a 37× 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 $3.50 and top grades reaching $129.37, 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.
