Judge Dred (Fred)One key to the question was IMAGE QUALITY (nice image). Here's a link to a card that was skinned and given an AUTHENTIC label. The over all presentation of the card (minus the backing) is very appealing. The price was $190. Image quality can and will have a great impact on the sale of an N172, whether the card is skinned, G-VG or worse. I've seen cards graded "1", "1.5" and "2" by SGC that had superb image quality but with some type of back issue/problem. Those are the cards that will sell for over $100 without much problem. To answer the question about $100 buying a G-VG card with a nice image. Not too many to be found at that price unless there are some serious issues with the card. Good Luck.
