$3.00 - $8.00
Graded Value
PSA 8: $25-35, PSA 9: $60-80, PSA 10: $250-350+
Comparable Sales
Raw copies typically sell for $3-$10 depending on condition. PSA 9 copies have recently sold in the $65 range. PSA 10s command a significant premium due to the difficulty of finding centered white-border cards from this era.
Description
Featured here is a 1994 Collector's Choice silver signature parallel of the legendary Barry Bonds. The card captures Bonds in an iconic outfield action shot against the ivy at Wrigley Field. This specimen features the 'Silver Signature' foil facsimile signature at the bottom, distinguishing it from the standard base version. The white borders are bright, and the iconic 'Collector's Choice' logo is sharp in the upper right.
Key Features
Features Baseball's all-time home run leader; Silver Signature parallel (found one per pack on average); iconic photography; high collectible interest in 90s parallels.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The foil stamping shows the correct reflective properties and the card stock width/texture is consistent with mid-90s Upper Deck production. This is not a commonly counterfeited card due to its relatively low raw value.
Flaws to Note
Significant bottom-heavy centering; bottom left corner shows minor white exposure; card is currently sitting bare on a hard surface which increases the risk of surface micro-abrasions.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform for this card as a single. It would also do well as part of a Bonds player lot or in a 'pick-your-card' listing on COMC.
Selling Tips
Immediately place this card in a penny sleeve and a top loader to prevent further surface damage. Do not grade this specific card unless the surface is flawless, as the centering will likely prevent a PSA 10, making the grading fee higher than the card's value.
