Aside from diligently researching adjacent certification numbers (a time-tested method!) and prior sales, is there a way to really value this card? I cannot find any comparable sales but my research is somewhat limited.
I'm kind of "bleh" on this particular card but I have been approached and I was curious what the consensus on here was.
Thanks in advance!

Edit: White House issue….
Pop 7 none higher. 13 graded total. I see nothing in APR.

"White House issue" cards are much more rare ....the prices above do not apply IMO

Looks like a BGS 9 of the "White House" version sold for 25K through PWCC
Unless you need the money, I would hold on to this card. If selling, go to a major auction house. Let the market determine the value.

thank you all!
P.S. I paid $1,250 for this card over 10 years ago so I literally can't lose money on it. I might be well-advised to HOLD while the market shakes out regarding it. There are not many copies out there that were actually given to the president. So, thank you all!
Sweet card!

Supposedly 99/100 glossy copies given to The President in a binder. The 100th card was signed by Bush during the presentation of that binder and kept by the Topps executive. Then there are another 100 non-glossy. Supposedly a few were packed out but a majority of them seem to have been backdoored. I would not be in a rush to sell either. Presidential stuff always does quite well.
