The 1972 O-Pee-Chee Rick Smith #284 is a Hockey card released in 1972. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $3.94.
An ungraded copy is worth around $3.94, a PSA 9 around $72.69, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $498.90 and a pristine BGS 10 around $649.00. That's roughly a 127× 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 $3.94 and top grades reaching $498.90, 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.
