| # | Card | Raw | PSA 10 | Cost | Net (best) | Risk-adj. |

| 1 | $24 | $300 | $73 | +$203 | −$51 | |

Net (best) = PSA 10 value − raw value − grading cost (PSA fees as of 2026-06-28). Risk-adjusted weights every grade by its estimated likelihood from PSA population (cumulative and biased toward nicer copies — a guide, not a guarantee).
