Why it has no score
This card sits below the $2.00 floor the analysis uses. That cut-off exists because percentage moves on near-worthless cards are mostly rounding, and admitting them measurably degrades the ranking for every other card — it is not a judgement on this one.

Is this card interesting right now?
Not analysed
This card sits below the $2.00 floor the analysis uses. That cut-off exists because percentage moves on near-worthless cards are mostly rounding, and admitting them measurably degrades the ranking for every other card — it is not a judgement on this one. Its recorded price history is shown above; only the scoring is absent.
Why is it interesting?
No score to explain
It has no interest score, so there is no ranking to break down.
Is it becoming more popular?
Not enough history
We do not have enough price observations for this card to compare it with the market.
Is it expensive or cheap?
$1.55 - cheap for its set
At $1.55 it is one of the cheaper cards in its set - number 232 of 264 by price. It costs more than 74% of other Common cards we track.
What makes this card unusual?
An ordinary Common from a 26-year-old set
Common is a widely printed rarity - 12,380 tracked cards share it. This is the Unlimited printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork. The set is about 26 years old, so surviving copies in good condition get scarcer over time.
Could you actually buy or sell it?
Unknown
Not enough observations to judge.
How does the grading fee compare?
Fee exceeds raw price
A roughly $22.00 grading fee is 1419% of the $1.55 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $23.55, before shipping, insurance or selling costs. That is a cost comparison, not an estimate of a graded copy's value. We track raw ungraded prices only - no graded sales and no population data. We cannot assess this copy's condition or tell you what a PSA 10 is worth. Check condition and comparable graded sales before deciding whether grading would pay off.
