A CHALLENGE - Want To Find PSA 1 Thru PSA 10 - Same Card - Any Suggestions?

MooseDog

I had an idea of trying to collect a PSA 1 thru PSA 10 of the SAME CARD and not spend an arm and a leg...anyone have any ideas as to a card this might be accomplished without spending a lot on the PSA 9 & 10? Can be any sport.

Yeah, if you are having a hard time finding the One or Two, buy a couple of threes and give it a little paper loss on the back

Take a look at the POP report for a few you like.

To get into the cheaper 10s, you may have to
make your own 1, 2, 3, 4.

Wow
Thought I was the only one trying that --- I am looking for a 1975 Gary Carter rookie have a 5, 6, 7 --- will be a loooong time before a aquire a 10

I think the 1989 Fleer Ken Griffey RC might be a good canidate to try. You can usually find this card in 4-5 grades at any moment on eBay. Anything under a 9 pretty much goes for nothing, and the card itself is kinda cool.

You can do it on any modern card, if you're willing to spend the money on submitting yourself and ruining a few cards.

That said -- you aren't going to find almost any other example, without spending hundreds or thousands, unless you create the card yourself. Think about it this way: If a PSA 10 of a card is only worth $50 - $100, no one is going to send in a PSA 1, 2, 3 or 4, but for an occassional mistake submission. If a PSA 10 is worth $1,000 -- you will likely see PSA 1-4 available, occassionally. But unless you submit yourself, this will be a Herculean task.

1990 Proset Hockey might be an option. The flimsy stock makes them easy to chip.
Maybe like Gretzky from that year.

I have a collection of Steve Largent rookies from psa 1, all the way to psa 9. Working on the 10 right now, getting ready to crack and resub a bunch of psa 9's.

The PSA 1 is very funny, it was a childhood card of mine, took it to school, kept it in my lunch box, etc.
