The 1998 Topps Roundball Royalty Shaquille O'Neal w/Coating #R9 is a Basketball card (w/Coating parallel) released in 1998. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $35.35.
An ungraded copy is worth around $35.35, a PSA 9 around $119.95, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $400.00 and a pristine BGS 10 around $520.00. That's roughly a 11× 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 $35.35 and top grades reaching $400.00, 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.
