I'd say it's roughly a PSA 3-4, but with a bit of pen marking on the back.

The only sale I can find is a Heritage PSA 3 that went for 2300 a few months ago. It's on par with this one, but with the marks on back.

Hi, I'm not sure why that Lindaman sold for so much. I guess a couple people really needed this card. This is one of the easier cards to find. Spencer has been known to be the most difficult, and I'd sell my raw one for $2200 or trade it for a Lundgren that I'm still missing. (Also missing Tom Jones) Not because I couldn't find one, It's just every time one came along, I was already spending all my money for the month on some other stuff. I bought my raw Lindaman Piedmont 350 for $65. I believe I got it from Dean's Card's. It was before they knew about the "Elite" cards. I actually bought 4 raw elites from them as commons. It was my payback to them screwing me over on a T205 Collins Yellow Elephant. I've owned 2 to 3 of each card over the years, except for the two I'm missing. It's my own fault. At one point, I was going to try and purchase every Spencer that came along. At the time, only 2 total were graded between PSA and SGC. I'm down to 2 Spencers. My PSA 2.5 which is part of my set, and the raw, which was SGC graded but cracked for a binder, and don't remember the grade. My raw Spencer is the last of my extras.

I've seen the elites sell cheap, but this one has got me confused. I used to value the commons around $200-$300 per grade point. ($200 if there was an ink mark) The Heritage one from the David Hall collection was a PSA 4 and sold for $1500 and I feel T206 prices were a little stronger in 2020 when his sold, than they were in 2022. It all comes down to needing just two people that want it really bad. Hopefully others will chime in, that have been watching the prices closer. I used to study and watch the prices for all combo's on a full time basis. I just don't have the time for that anymore, plus it was harder to estimate anything for this set after 2019.

This Lundgren helps make up for the missing Piedmont 350 that I still need.
