The math is close. Slab if you want liquidity and a cert; stay raw if you like the card in hand.
Grade yield
45% chance of PSA 9+. Net potential upside: −$30 after grading costs. Leave it raw.
PSA regular · $50 fee · $15 ship · $8 insurance · about 45 days. Shifted by this photo's 7.5 and 16,400 graded copies. Not a PSA yield.
Raw $310 · PSA 10 $740 · PSA 9 $280 · PSA 8 no book
- PSA 109% · pop 2,400+$267 after fee
- PSA 936% · pop 8,600-$132 after fee
- PSA 811%
Net is the slab price minus a 13% take, ship pad, a $50 fee, and raw. A 10 is not the likely outcome of a 9 photo.
Hold or sell
Mixed book — no rush
Liquidity 65
Football is in season. A crowded list usually gets hit before the quiet months. One census snapshot — not a live pop velocity.
Trust shield
Check these tells
A phone photo cannot measure font kerning or a rosette against a reference set. These are the known tells for this issue.
- True Prizm silver refracts under a moving light — flat gray is a counterfeit
- Chrome stock has a specific snap; paper-backed 'chrome' is fake

Authenticity
Likely authentic
Visual review, not a cert.
Census match on a well-documented issue. Still verify holograms, stamps, and stock in hand — photos miss texture.
- Print and type match known copies of this issue
- Stock and finish consistent with the set
- Chrome RC. Confirm Packers home green and the 2005 Chrome rainbow.

Tells
How fakes fail
Ink, patch construction, and serial stamps must agree.
- On-card autos have ink soak; sticker autos sit on top
- Serial numbering stamp weight and placement are copied poorly
- Patch layers should match the known player/set construction
- Championship Ticket vs Rookie Ticket is a different card — check the gold parallel
On this issue: Chrome RC. Confirm Packers home green and the 2005 Chrome rainbow.
Centering & surface
Meter L/R and T/B from this photo, then loupe the print. A hint at what PSA, BGS, or SGC might say — not a cert.

Lot notes
Jets/Packers noise moves it. A 9 is the listed lot.
