The 2022 Topps Chrome Update Base Set MJ Melendez Aqua #USC38 is a Baseball card (Aqua parallel) released in 2022. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $2.49.
An ungraded copy is worth around $2.49, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $34.95 and a pristine BGS 10 around $45.00. That's roughly a 14× 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 ($2.49) and top-graded ($34.95) 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.
