🗑️ The Garbologist says…

Steady
The Garbologist popped the lid on this card.
  • 29 recorded sales · 3 in the last year · trades only a few times a year · moderate-confidence sample.
  • The recent trail reads $450 → $400 → $450 → $440 → $300 — choppy but broadly rangebound.
  • Heads up: the last recorded sale ($300 on 2026-09-22) landed 36% below our current value — weigh it as a single data point.
  • Census check: PSA has graded 572 of this card, and only 4.5% come back a 10 — a genuine condition rarity.
  • Net-net, it's holding its ground — steady demand, no fireworks either way.

Automated analysis generated from this card’s real recorded sales and PSA population data — no opinions, no predictions guaranteed. Entertainment and research only, not financial advice.

🧬 Should I slab it?

Grade it

Only about 1 in 22 copies of this card get a 10; across every grade, a graded copy should be worth about $255, more than the $98 it costs to grade plus the $20 raw copy you give up.

Expected value if graded$157 (after $98 all-in cost)
Raw value today$20 (from 141 raw sales)
VerdictGrade it

Grading pays even without a 10.

How these numbers work
All-in cost $98: PSA Standard tier fee $60 per card (expected $66 with PSA's upcharge if it comes back worth more than the tier allows), insured shipping to PSA ~$12, PSA insured return shipping ~$20. Sending it to your PSA Vault instead skips return shipping (vault intake and storage are free): ~$78 all-in, so a graded copy would net ~$177.
Grade odds (this card, 572 PSA-graded): 10 · 5%, 9 · 17%, 8 · 28%, 7 or lower · 50%. People send their best copies, so a random raw copy usually grades a bit lower.
Values when it comes back (~95 days, about Feb 12, 2027): today's values (the set has no clear 3-month trend).
Expected value if graded = each grade's chance × its value, minus the all-in cost. A guide, not a guarantee — centering and corners on your copy decide the grade.
