The 2018 Panini Contenders Optic Sam Darnold Autograph Red #103 is a Football card (Autograph Red parallel) released in 2018. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $157.50.
An ungraded copy is worth around $157.50, a PSA 9 around $262.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $367.50 and a pristine BGS 10 around $478.00. The gem-mint premium is modest (about 2.3× raw), so condition matters here but doesn't completely define the price.
Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $157.50 and top grades reaching $367.50, 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.
