Slab history — PSA 9 copies that have sold more than once
1 slab has sold more than once, across 1 resale. That is 1 of the 14 distinct slabs behind 17 cert-linked sales at this grade — 7.1%. The rest we have seen sell once, which is not evidence they have not sold before.
| Cert | Sales of this slab | Between | Gross change |
|---|---|---|---|
| #51434458 | Dec 2021 $34→Jan 2024 $34 | Over a year | -1.3% |
A cert reappearing shows the same physical slab sold again — it identifies no buyer or seller. Gross change is price to price; fees, shipping and the grading cost are not in it.

Compare graders, and the live market
The verdict above is PSA's — the grader the population, the ROI table and the ladder on this page all use. Trader prices all three graders against each other and adds what the asking market is doing right now.
- PSA, CGC and Beckett side by side — each on its own population and fees, Beckett scored on the 9.5 its market pays for.
- Lightly and moderately played — the same expected return for a copy that cannot gem.
- Ask vs sold — what the live listings want, against what copies have really closed at.
- Momentum — the 30-day median against the 90-day, per grade.
- Where it sells higher — the Fanatics-versus-eBay premium, with the sale counts behind it.
- Population history — the weekly PSA census, so you can see how fast 10s are arriving before you post the card.
Built on 36 graded sales and a population of 1,890,338 · fees as of 2026-10-03.
