The 2002 Topps Chrome Mike Piazza Black Refractor #490 is a Baseball card (Black Refractor parallel) released in 2002. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $22.47.
An ungraded copy is worth around $22.47, a PSA 9 around $77.55, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $381.08 and a pristine BGS 10 around $495.00. That's roughly a 17× 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 $22.47 and top grades reaching $381.08, 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.
