The highest priced PSA 10 condition card from the 1970 Topps baseball set is currently the Thurman Munson.

Despite a POP report of over 4 thousand total graded, only 4 PSA 10 cards have ever been graded by PSA.

As of today, which card in PSA 10 condition is the highest priced card in the 1979 Topps Baseball set?

Q1

The highest priced PSA 10, 1979 Topps Baseball card to date is card number 116 Ozzie Smith. There are only 5 PSA 10 Ozzie Smith rookies out of the almost 10,000 Ozzie rookie cards graded. The main reason for this is most of the rookie cards were cut off-centered during production.

Did you know that Ozzie Smith actually made his debut in 1978? However since Topps had not yet introduced the “Update” series, his first Topps card would have to wait until 1979.

Which is worth more, a PSA 10 graded 1975 Topps Brett or Yount?

A PSA 10 graded 1975 Topps Brett sold for a max of over $180,000 while the highest price ever paid for a Yount is just over $100,000. This means that Brett, in top condition, is worth more than Yount of the same grade.

The 1975 Topps made some pretty decent design choices from previous years. The distinctive colorful borders certainly make this set stand out. It is therefore, hard to find a high PSA grade of this set on the market, which makes their value a bit on the top side in the present day.

Which is worth more: a PSA 10 Graded 1972 Topps Nolan Ryan or Carlton Fisk?

q1 image 1972

A PSA 10 graded Carlton Fisk is worth substantially more than a PSA 10 Nolan Ryan.

While the (relatively) high numbered Ryan has sold for more than $7,500, the Fisk on the other hand has sold for just shy of $50,000. The PSA 10 Fisk rookie is a rare card with only 10 achieving that elusive grade.

Which Is Worth More A PSA 10 Graded 1977 Topps Andre Dawson Or Nolan Ryan?

1977 q1

A PSA 10 1977 Topps Nolan Ryan is worth more than a Andre Dawson rookie. The highest price paid for a PSA 10 Nolan Ryan was $9,200 while the Rookie Outfielder card featuring Andre Dawson topped out at a price just over $6,200. Both of these players would become Hall of Famers, Ryan being enshrined in 1999 and Dawson in 2010.

Which PSA 10 1971 Topps Baseball card has sold for the most dollars?

71 q

The most expensive PSA 10 from the 1971 Topps baseball set was #630 Roberto Clemente which sold for $71,700 in 2016. Only 1 PSA 10 Clemente has ever been graded, and with the way the market has been moving, it is highly likely that the price will be considerably higher if it’s ever seen back in auction. The second most expensive baseball card from the 1971 Topps baseball set was  #400 Hank Aaron which sold for $60,000.
