Below grade 10 the guide publishes one estimate across all graders, so these rows are not PSA, BGS, CGC or SGC prices, and a low slabbed grade can sit below a clean raw copy. Grade 10 is estimated per grader.
Each point is the last stored observation that day for this printing, condition, grader, autograph status and source. Gaps mean no observation; guide estimates and asking prices are not completed sales.

SuperCatch Expert Analysis
Market Value Insight
This 2011 Topps Series 1 Jim Thome card represents a standard base-level entry, reflecting a modest price tier relative to his broader career significance as a Hall of Fame-caliber power hitter. The current market positioning indicates a stable, accessible price point for general collectors, with limited supply available in the current listing environment. It trades at a baseline valuation typical for non-premium parallel or insert versions from this specific release.
Rarity Breakdown
As a standard base card with no noted special attributes, this item carries the highest supply volume within the 2011 Topps Series 1 set. There are no serial numbering constraints, short-print designations, or unique parallels to restrict its availability. Consequently, it lacks the scarcity mechanics that typically drive premium valuations in secondary markets.
Investment Outlook
Investment potential is limited by its status as a common base card rather than a rookie or high-end parallel. While Thome’s enduring popularity in baseball ensures consistent collector interest, this specific card lacks the unique scarcity or rookie-card premium mechanics required for significant appreciation. It serves best as an affordable acquisition for volume collecting rather than a speculative asset.
