PSA 10 is estimated to be worth $150. Rose was known for his incredible devotion and tenacity throughout his career, as he racked up hit after hit and led some great baseball teams. His reputation as one of the best hitters in history is certainly justified.
In 2006, an ungraded PSA 10 Rose card sold for $140,000 at auction. The highest graded example available on eBay at time of writing is a PSA 9.5 card that sold for $109,500 in November 2015. A PSA 10 card can expect to sell for between $80,000 and $100,000.
Cards are worth more when graded by the Professional Scorers Association (PSA). Each card is given a grade from 0-10, with 10 being the highest grade possible. Cards that are not graded by the PSA cannot be certified by collectors as being worth more than their value as scrap. However, they can be worth more than their value as scrap if they were part of a collection or sold under a label such as "priceless".
Auction prices reflect the value of the card as opposed to its grade. Ungraded cards often have high values because people believe they will increase in value over time just like rare sports cars do.
A single-signed baseball by Pete Rose is valued between $50 and $100. A autographed portrait of Pete Rose is worth around $40.000.
The value of a signed baseball or football depends on many factors, such as who signed it, when it was signed, where it is now located, and more. There are several public collections that include signed baseballs and footballs that were used by some of the most famous players in history. The most valuable collection is that of John L. Smith, which includes baseballs signed by Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, Joe DiMaggio, and many others. Other notable collectors include Bob Gibson's family and Bill Wippert. In addition to being signed by their own players, some balls feature signatures from other athletes including Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris, and Willie Mays.
The value of a signed ball increases with age. However, signature wear-and-tear will reduce its value. Balls with clear plastic covers tend to be more valuable than those covered in leather or cloth. Also, balls signed by well-known players are harder to come by so they tend to be more expensive.
An autographed photo of Pete Rose has been known to sell for up to $40,000.
Gem Mint PSA 10 $2,500 is the estimated value. The 1983 Topps Tony Gwynn rookie card, along with those of Wade Boggs and Ryne Sandberg, is one of the most influential and memorable baseball cards of the 1980s. In 2011, an ungraded copy of this card sold for $45,000.
The 1983 Topps baseball card set is especially valuable because it contains 100 cards from 30 different players who would go on to have great careers in the Major Leagues. There are seven rookies (including Tony Gwynn), two members of the Hall of Fame (Mike Schmidt and Barry Larkin), three former MVPs (Ron Santo, Dave Winfield, and Mike Lowell), and four future Hall of Famers (Tony Gwynn, Steve Garvey, Ozzie Smith, and Robin Yount).
The set was released around the same time as the 1982 Topps baseball card set but did not receive the same attention because it did not feature any big-name players. It does, however, contain some very interesting minor leaguers who went on to have successful careers. The average price per card is $100, but there are several copies available for less than $10 each.
Tony Gwynn's rookie card is by far the most expensive card in the set with an estimated value of $150,000-$175,000.
Hank Aaron rookie card from Topps, 1954 Hank Aaron's Baseball Card Value His most valued card is a 1954 Hank Aaron Topps rookie card, which will sell for $350,000 or more in a PSA 10 grade. The card was issued just three years after Aaron first played baseball and has one of the most recognizable images of him ever put on a card. He remains the only player to have his first card signed by Babe Ruth.
The most valuable card in existence today was sold at auction for $4.2 million in August 2010. It is a 1952 Hank Aaron Topps card with a serial number of 3-9-1-6-0. That makes it the most valuable card in the world that is still in print packaging.
The second highest-graded card available is a 2011 Topps Traded card featuring Aaron's final season playing professional baseball. The card is graded near perfect by both PSA/DNA and Beckett with an overall grade of 9.5 out of 10. As far as copies go, there are only four other copies of this card in existence, all owned by very wealthy collectors.
The last card that Aaron signed before retiring from baseball is a 1957 Topps card. It is estimated to be worth between $150,000 and $200,000.
PSA 8 is believed to be worth $45,000. Jackie Robinson has only one actual rookie card, which is the legendary 1948 Leaf. Not only is it one of the keys to the 1948 Leaf collection, but it is also one of the most valuable baseball cards of all time. The PSA/DNA Registry Value of this card is $555,000.
Jackie Robinson broke into the major leagues with the Brooklyn Dodgers in April 1947. He played first base and was known for his speed on the basepaths. That year he led the league in steals with 42 thefts and was voted the Rookie of the Year.
Robinson's card is #854 of 9500 issued by Topps. It was printed in Brooklyn during spring training in 1948 and shows him running toward home plate with his arm raised after stealing third base. He is accompanied by two photographers and they are standing next to each other, probably because there were only eight steals that season.
This is not only one of the key cards to collect but it is also one of the most valuable cards ever produced. A total of only 100 copies were made and today fewer than 50 remain in excellent condition. Even in 2012 when baseball cards were popular again after a long hiatus, only about 15 people owned all eight cards.
PSA 10 Estimated Value: $150 The 1986 Donruss Rated Rookie, perhaps Canseco's most known rookie card, is still one of the most sought-after cards of the era. Canseco's headshot dominates the front of the card, which is flanked by those recognizable striped borders. The back features a photo of Canseco with his new teammates in Toronto, along with stats from his debut season.
Canseco entered the league at an interesting time when power numbers were on the rise but home run totals were still relatively low. Although he didn't hit many homers until later in his career, he did so at a very young age. The fact that he was able to make such an immediate impact shows how highly regarded he was coming out of college. He ended up playing eight seasons in the major leagues, finishing with a.276 average and 52 stolen bases.
The estimated value of this card rests on how popular Canseco was during his early years in the league. His PSA 10 status means it is likely to sell for more than the other cards on this list that do not have any special awards or achievements associated with them. A card like this one would be worthwhile investing in if you can find another with just one already in it.
As far as grading goes, this card is perfectly normal with no defects or stains on it. It has been kept in a clean environment and has not been taped or mounted.
