What do you think of my 87 Fleer Jordan

Hi all - I'd love your feedback on my 87 Fleer Jordan. It has nice corners and good centering, to my eye, but it has a crease. I've pointed it out in the images.

I don't really know how a crease affects an otherwise good-looking card, as my other creased cards that I've sent to be graded are usually much older and are dinged up in other ways too, so I don't have hopes for decent grades with those. But in this case, what do you think this would grade? Thanks for your expertise!

    PSA 4 at the highest.

    Yep. Sorry to hear it has a small crease. Still a nice looking card of the GOAT. But a 4 at best and maybe not worth getting it slabbed.

    I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid.

    Thanks all. Even at a 4, these cards are achieving prices that seem to make it worthy of slabbing it, at least in my book. See recent confirmed sale prices:

    Just semantics, but I believe technically that’s a surface wrinkle unless it is visible on the back.

    If you’re looking to sell, it would still sell strong on eBay, and I’d sell it raw if I were you. Just point it out clearly like you have with the pics, and add it to the description. I think you’d be surprised what it will go for.

    Ah, well a surface wrinkle seems less severe than a crease, so I will go with that nomenclature! I don't think I want to sell it now, but I do view grading as a way to lock in the condition and preserve it -- and it allows me to be able to accurately gauge the market for the card in the future. Off to PSA it will go.

    Back in my time a crease was a death blow to a card.. wow.
    I'd never buy one, but what do I know apparently.
