Ryan rc psa 10 = $400,000
 

Call me crazy, but if you place the lone 10 right beside a strong 9, the cards look identical. Especially the way the 1968 design's burlap pattern is so forgiving to the eye on corner wear.

For some cards, the jump from a certain grade to the next is such a huge sum of money-- for such a small increase in card quality.

In fact, one could assert that the jump from 9 to 10 is among the biggest in price, but among the smallest in terms of card quality. Heck of an inverse relationship there.

If you need the Hubbell Telescope to tell the difference btw a 9 and a 10, it's just an incredibly arcane game that does nothing put produce a value bubble.

I say, the only difference between a PSA 9 and a PSA 10 is the number of times you've cracked and resubmitted until you got the latter!

Did the Ryan sell for $400k??

Agree 100%, or your a PSA power seller with $10k+ in submissions monthly....

Did the PSA 10 Ryan actually transact at $400,000?

If it did, good for Joe P..
