In theory a 1 could be a real beater that just looks terrible or it could be a nice well centered card with some paper loss on the back. Since the card is raw and you think its a 1, I'll assume its not a case where just the "technical" grade is low on a card that looks great. In the best case of a great looking card, I'd guesstimate 150

A typical 1, maybe 80? But I'm cheap. This wasn't the question, but I think there is good value in that card around the PSA 5 grade which seems to hover around 300 - the nice ones going a bit over and the not so nice ones going a bit under. I say its good value because if spending 100 on a nice 1, or maybe 200 on a nice 2, 250 on a nice 3, etc. for not that much more its possible to jump all the way up to a 5 which is a grade that's easier to resell. This is all just opinion though - a pure collector would say don't look at the grade, evaluate for yourself, but in the current environment, I think the grade matters.
