Rocket-68 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 7 hours ago, Dumb Nuck said: That card was a PSA 10 which means it has to be perfect, only a handful of them exist. Problem was that the 1979 set seriously lacked quality control and cards were off center or had frayed edges. Odds of finding a PSA 10 in that one case are slim to none. I'd bet my slightly used wife on the fact that if they opened the case they'd end up losing money, heck, I'd even give 2:1 odds. You sir win the comment of the day award, LOL, your point is taken. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantee of a perfect specimen. The value may lie in the rarity of an unopened case. Out of the 27 expected cards. 2 would be the top card in the pack (or bottom card) and have the gum stuck to it. Basically ruining those 2. 79/80 also have very bad centering. I would guess he might get 0-2 PSA 10s. Then another 20 being 8-9s or OC 9s. This set is hard to find 10s for any players. They are all very rare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine if you spent $5 million canadian, and there isn't even 1 Gretzky rookie card in the lot? Imagine finding Brent or Keith Gretzky’s rookie cards in there.
