Meanwhile, Leaf #245 raw copies are going for just $4 — that 10x multiplier to PSA 10 ($219) makes raw copies a gamble worth taking.

Studio #112 PSA 10 climbed from $349 to $374 at auction with 26 bids — the inaugural Studio set keeps building a cult following. Donruss #77 PSA 8 jumped from $7 to $11, and O-Pee-Chee Premier #56 PSA 9 moved from $12 to $19, finally correcting an old inversion where PSA 8 was priced higher than PSA 9.

Ultra Award Winners #22 PSA 10 jumped from $226 to $300 — a 33% move at auction with 19 bids. Filled in Stadium Club Members Choice #603 PSA 9 at $50 from five separate auctions ($39-$66). Fleer #279 PSA 9 dropped from $25 to $17. The Donruss Elite /10,000 in PSA 7 hit $404 at auction — that card commands respect in any grade.

Cooling off across the board. Upper Deck #355 PSA 10 dropped from $70 to $61, Pinnacle Home Run Club PSA 9 fell from $55 to $45, and SP Platinum Power PSA 8 slid from $34 to $25. Added Donruss Diamond Kings PSA 8 at $27 and Topps Gold #179 PSA 9 at $27 — solid mid-tier fills.

Finest Refractor #232 PSA 9 surged from $2,300 to $3,040 at auction with 31 bids. That's a 32% jump on one of the most iconic refractors of the decade. The technology was brand new in '94 and these cards are brutally hard to find in high grade.

Pinnacle Bubble Gum #128 PSA 9 ticked up from $240 to $258 with multiple sales in the $245-$270 range. Added PSA 8 at $118 — that's the entry point for the most iconic Griffey image ever put on cardboard. On the flip side, Topps #397 PSA 9 dropped hard from $24 to $15.

Big movers today. Summit Above & Beyond PSA 10 nearly doubled from $460 to $800. Score Titanic Taters PSA 10 jumped from $440 to $609 at auction with 29 bids. Collector's Choice #370 PSA 10 surged from $46 to $70. Metal Universe Mother Lode PSA 9 confirmed at $191. Flair Diamond Cuts raw moved from $90 to $115.
