    Thanks for your vague question...

    I'll take a stab.

    If it is a legitimately rare card, whether graded or not, it may raise the value slightly. For example, if it were a 1933 Freddie Lindstrom, that would be very valuable...probably slightly more if there was a third-party attestation to the authenticity and un-altered nature of the card.

    If it is a 1983 Fleer Porfio Altamarino card, probably not. No one on this board likely even remembers Porfio, and, if they did, they don't want his cards. So unless it there is some crazy 1983 Fleer graded set collector out there who hasn't found a sufficiently centered/strong cornered Porfio card to submit, again it likely will not raise its value.

    Again -- you are way too vague. Is it the only card graded? Or the only card that has been graded to meet the grade that you got. Because that is a very different question.

    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    in my quote it says"it turns out that it was the ONLY 1 of this certain card graded". yes it is graded. its a 7 but the only one that was graded. it is a 1989 khan's pete rose. don

    Don, Pete retired in 1986 if I remember right, so the card as a 1989 card doesn't qualify for the master registry set. That's probably the biggest reason it hasn't been graded yet. There's so many different pete rose cards that people are working on the ones that "count" and they'll get to the rest later.

    In the meantime you have a 7. People who collect Pete Rose enough to have a master set are going to just get a nicer one raw and submit it themselves rather than settle for a 7. A 7 on a 1987 card isn't going to attract a lot of buyers.

    If you list it on ebay as a pop 1 card you might catch a buyer but I wouldn't expect to get rich on it. Just my .02
