Least Valueable graded card of all-time!

What do you consider the least valueable graded card....ever. I'm looking through my collection right now and I'll find a good starting card.

Who can top this beauty? I'm open to all offers!

    A 1988 Donruss common in 1?


    How about for your Jordan in 10 I'll get you a 1988 Donruss common graded 1?

    That is about as low as one can get.

    Good for you.

    Yeah, I just went on the POP report and saw that the lowest grade for a 1988 Donruss is a 3. I've got some pretty worthless cards but a low grade 1988 Donruss would be sweet! I'm still looking for my trade bait!

    Or a 1991 Topps common, PSA 1. VCP shows 4 auctions with an average of -$12.96. Hehe, j/k.

    Get a miscut 1988 Donruss Sam Horn, drip some red food coloring on it, let it dry, then wad it up into a ball, flatten it out, write profanity on it, then submit it and see what you get.

    I was watching one of the old 88-89 era NBA highlight shows on ESPN and they showed a bird eating nuts off the floor in the arena and Marv Albert commented "Is that a Larry Bird fan or a Rory Sparrow fan?"

    I'm surprised it didn't get a (SW) qualifier, as that's one of the sweatiest cards I've seen in a while...

    Dang...if that was in PSA 4.....I would have to talk you out of it. I've seen some real ugly cards at shows before.....so I know there is something worse than my Rory Sparrow!

    Yes, the bottom edges look exactly like that in person. Kinda sad when I have to "upgrade" my PSA 9's...(bought from 4SC to boot). image

    I think this just flew over my head - are you looking to trade that card for something also in bad condition?

    Not sure I understand?

    Prscott has the right idea....but even that Ozzie Smith PSA 4 is more valuable than my Sparrow in PSA 5 condition. Stone.....I'm looking for a a less valuable card than the sparrow that I've listed at the begining. (It has to be graded) My ultimate goal is to find the biggest piece of crap for a card out there!

    If you had a '66 Topps Don Mossi in PSA 10, you'd have the ugliest card of all time. In a lesser grade, wear and tear on the card would hide his true ugliness.

    I love that card.

    My HOW #288 is graded PSA1MC. Major case of Buyer's Remorse made me get that card. I had the card in PSA5. At that time it was only the 3rd. graded at that level with non higher. I needed my roof repaired - $3500.00. Sold the card to raise money & it paid for a significant chunk of the repair bill. The hole in my set bothered me so much I got that one. Someday I'll upgrade it.

    How about a 1988 Donruss PSA 1 MK on some common Expo player.....MK is likely the worse qualifier. I think that would be the blue whale card.

    Like I said....I don't think there is a PSA 1 of a 1988 Donruss Card. If there is....I want it!
  • Options
    The Pop report says the lowest grade '88 Donruss is a Carlton Fisk - there is one graded a PSA 3 and a Tom Glavine - there are two graded PSA 3. Good luck tracking those down!

    Perkdog,

    Wow, that Houk is pretty beat up. If you've seen the vintage trade board, you know that I am building a poor condition 52 Topps set. I think that card would have to be upgraded even in my set.


    Here is my Yogi Berra, which is might be the worst condition card in my set. I still had to pay $17 for so it doesn't fit the description of least valuable.

    $3 plus shipping on ebay, before I sent it to get slabbed. I don't think BV is much more than the $3.

    Not IMO. Some players are followed more closely than others. You could have two common cards of players from the same set that would have different values?
