"how much more would this card be worth if the white lines in the green background were not there?" A lot!!
Its a great looking card. I think it grades a 4-5 without the marks, and great eye appeal.
An SGC 4 sold in LOTG on 4/4/21 for $25,830 (note that an SGC 4 was a $10k card a year ago and a $17k card in January)
An SGC 5 sold in Heritage on 7/24/21 for $27,600 - it is nicer than yours without the lines.
So lets say that an SGC 4 - SGC 5 ranges from $18k - $28k.
Recent SGC 2 sales average to about $6700 ($5,700 and $7,700, both PWCC).
So, to answer your question, based on these comps, I think you card is worth about $6,500 (slight downward adjustment for PWCC comps), but it would be worth about $22k without them. So, in my opinion, the white lines are worth $16k+/-
Can you tell I have no big plans this Saturday night?!?!
