That's a huge pickup!!! Certainly has great eye appeal, and at the very least it is a super strong 9. Any idea what kept it from a 98? Surface?

My deepest sympathies go out to you. Hope you didn't pay too much for a player who was, as a matter of absolute fact, approximately 3% better offensively than Alan Trammel (OPS+ 115 to 111, a totally valid comparison between players of different eras), and not nearly as good defensively. Signature Jeter hit? Fisted blooper to right field (I sure saw enough of them off his bat--too numerous to count!). Signature Mantle hit? 450-500 foot+ homer (such as the blast to right off the facade at old Yankee Stadium, 117 feet high, 374' from home plate; the one over the left field scoreboard at old Griffith Park in Washington--supposedly traveling 565 feet--and the fact that center field UPPER deck in old Tiger Stadium--field level, 440' to dead center--was known as "Mickey Mantle territory" for good reason; plus 3 over the right field roof at Tiger Stadium). Plus, there are thousands and thousands of this card out there in higher grades, with extremely little to differentiate between them!
Just my personal opinion, and I'm not trying to dampen your parade out of ill motive, but sometimes a little reason has to filter into the "popular" category, and not just mist, smoke, delusion and hype! Like the actual ability of the player, and not the common illusion regarding same. Jeter was a compiler, which is why is bare total stats over a long period make him look considerably better than he really was. Just sayin', Larry Last edited by ls7plus; 11-24-2018 at 12:11 PM. |

As far as his '93 SP rookie is concerned you are right, the population is enormous, but...once you get to the mint grades now we're talking several hundred cards not thousands. I also, don't see to the numbers changing too much as the years go on as most of those '93 SP's are probably stuck together or have been warped in their boxes over time. The foil on those cards are extremely sensitive to indentations in the surface, chipping, and corner wear. His looks far nicer than most (unless you haven't taken a look at those things up close) - honestly looks like a BGS 9.5. And, while the population of '78 Trammell/Molitor (and even the '78 BK) cards is much smaller, Jeter's popularity/recognition is far greater than both Trammell and Molitor combined, I'm not really sold on Trammell as a comparable to Jeter in terms of hobby appeal. Either way, it should be interesting to see what happens to mint 9+ graded after he gets inducted. |

The only card post 1980 more iconic than the sp Jeter is the 86 Jordan. Jeter is the most popular and widely collected player of the modern era, and despite what a few haters have to say I don't see that changing. Championships, and being the face of the Yankees for over a decade mean a lot more than stats alone. The all star appearances and 3000 hits don't hurt either.

This is the most iconic post-1980 card shy of the 86 Jordan? I think not. 1984 Donruss Mattingly, 1986 Donruss Jose Canseco, 1980 Topps Rickey Henderson, and (of course) the 1989 Upper Deck Griffey Jr. ALL are arguably more "iconic" as representatives of our hobby. For a period of time, the 1985 Topps McGwire, Clemens, Gooden and Puckett were also right up there. But the Jeter, though nice, is not nearly as immediately recognizable or "iconic" as the cards previously mentioned.

However, all that being said, there is no way that the other cards can even compare to the popularity of Jeter's '93 SP - I think the demand and price speaks for itself. |

I collect Griffey, and the 89 ud was pretty iconic at the time it was released. The first card of a new set helped too. But there are so many out there that the sp Jeter has surpassed it. That 100k recent sale for a 10 proves the point. Other than some rare 1/1s or super fractor type cards, or low pop lebron rookies nothing produced in the last 40 years will come close to that price. And it's just a base card.

I want to sincerely apologize for raining on your parade. Unfortunately, I was in a bad mood at the time, and should have realized that the key thing is that your acquisition of a very high quality Jeter rookie, with great eye appeal, brings you the joy that collecting whatever the rest of us collect brings us. Making those comments was extremely rude and boorish of me, and I have regretted making them ever since that post. Once again, I am very sorry for my negative comments, and wish you all the joy that collecting can bring. I would be honored if you would accept this apology.
Sincerely, Larry Last edited by ls7plus; 11-28-2018 at 08:46 PM. |

Gotta disagree with you there, at least in favor of 1989 Upper Deck #1. Yes, it's not nearly expensive as either the Jeter or the Jordan. But it is easily iconic.

I'm not a huge fan of the new shiny stuff, but in hand the SP Jeter is a very attractive card IMO. Then again I really like the 94 SP Arod too.

Certainly iconic - congrats!! And realllllllly nice looking card!
The 89 UD Griffey is one of the most iconic cards of any hobby era. The SP is a top 5 modern era card. and Peter, don't sell us a bag of goods …. you LOVE shiny stuff!

Literally, in the last 2 weeks alone, the Jeter SP has gone quite nuts. I assume the start of the new season has something to do with the bump, but it's been really insane these last few weeks. Wow. Certainly a big supply, BUT clearly an even bigger demand. Iconic.
Glad I got a stack of them when I did. Last edited by MVSNYC; 04-08-2019 at 03:51 PM. |

As these get out of reach for a lot of people it only makes sense his other cards follow. I am unsure the amount of "10"s wit this card but it looks like it is going to finish well. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-Pinnac...-/352635943746

Dale, thanks for that article. High tide raises all boats.
About 2-3 years ago a bought each of his rookie cards in PSA 10 (save for the SP, which I own ten 8.5's). Looks like one of my better decisions. |

That was definitely a great decision! Quote:
When I got back into the hobby in 2016, I went through a bunch of stuff and noticed I had purchased a 92 Pinnacle pack which had Jeter's card in it. I assume back then he was just another player/common as I didn't even have it in a sleeve nor top loader. It's in nice shape, luckily, but I doubt it's worth sending it in to get graded? I'm curious where these 2 cards are going to end?

Peter- I am scratching my head too, with the sudden, seemingly unprovoked spike.
In regards to your last line...he was a fiery competitor, who won 5 rings, and was extremely well-liked. That all adds up. Also, I think people forgot, or simply don't realize...he's number 6 on the all-time hits list. That's a pretty big deal, considering all the greats who have played the game. I plan to hold for a while, may peel a few off next summer (when he's inducted). Last edited by MVSNYC; 04-13-2019 at 07:50 PM. |

Hi Dale, definitely new highs (as far as I know). I bought my examples of each (PSA 10's) for half those prices 2 years ago. Quite honestly, I think they were still half those prices 2 months ago. Seems that his cards have gone nuts (more than doubled) in the last 6-8 weeks.
