What it's worth graded

Market values from PriceCharting — what a slab in this grade is priced at, not what one has sold for.

Gem Mint 10 — valued separately for each grader

PSA—

Beckett (BGS)—

CGC—

TAG—closest match

ACE—not in this price source

9.5, 9 and 8–8.5 — one value, not broken down by grader

Grade 9.5—not priced yet

Grade 9—not priced yet

Grade 8–8.5—not priced yet

PriceCharting publishes a single price at these three grades and doesn't say which grading company it came from, so we show it once instead of copying the same number under PSA, BGS, CGC and TAG. The 8–8.5 figure covers both grades. PSA doesn't award half grades, so a PSA 9.5 slab doesn't exist — we leave that gap open rather than filling it with another grader's number.

How we work these figures outsource, coverage and caveats

At grade 10 we can show what each grader's slab is worth, so the PSA, BGS and CGC figures above are each that grader's own value. Below 10 we can't: our price source gives one value for 9.5, 9 and 8–8.5 without saying which grader it belongs to. We show that single value once rather than repeating it under every grader's name — it is not a claim that every grader's slab sells for the same amount. The 8–8.5 figure covers both grades; it is not a price for a straight 8. PSA doesn't award half grades, so there is no such thing as a PSA 9.5, and we never borrow another grader's number to fill that gap. We have no value of our own for TAG, so we show the closest match we have. ACE isn't covered by this source and we never estimate it — its real sold prices are in the eBay sold-comps table further down.

Is grading worth it?

How this is worked outthe formula, and the raw price used

For every grading company and grade we compare the graded market value against the all-in cost of getting there:

net = graded value − (raw price + grading cost)

Raw price used: —. Every row below shows that figure, the fee and the graded value it was compared against, so no net appears without its working.

Grading costs are configurable estimates, not live quotes — actual fees vary by company, tier and turnaround. This is informational only and not financial advice.

We don't have enough data yet to compare this card's raw price against a graded value — check back once both are tracked.
