An ungraded copy is worth around $175.75, a PSA 9 around $177.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $756.83 and a pristine BGS 10 around $984.00. That's roughly a 4.3× 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 $175.75 and top grades reaching $756.83, 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.
