Montana RC Proof

jmeryllman · 10-01-2013, 09:54 PM

Hello! I've been away from the hobby for at least 12 years. I'm trying to get back, and a lot has change. Looking forward to collecting again (bought 3 boxes of Bowman Chrome and opened 5 packs of Certified yesterday...hooked again)

I acquired this Montana RC Proof in 1995. Just have a few questions.

1. Is there a market for Topps Proofs?

2. This was graded by ASA before PSA started. My understanding is that ASA owns the patent for the slab and 1-10 grading system. Should I have this regraded to PSA or BGS?

My Montana RC collection consists of proof, uncut sheet, rack pack with Montana showing and a regular card straight from a pack. Every step of the Montana RC.

Thanks in advance!

I'd have it regraded by PSA. Throw it up on Ebay buy it now or best offer at a fairly high price and see what kind of offers you get. Will give you a pretty good idea of what its worth.
