The ball is signed by Chris Polk and the mini helmet signed by Brock Huard when he was broadcasting at Renton City Hall back around 2015. It was worth a trip downstairs to get his autograph.
The Dawgfather poster cost $20 and then $60 to laminate it onto the wood backing. I almost didn’t do it as I thought the lady at the frame shop was crazy but it turned out great.
The photo of the stadium was Mrs Nacho’s wedding gift to me. I got her an oversized nacho serving platter.
A few more cards. Two are hot off the press from HGA grading. PSA and Beckett are the gold standard to grading, but they were so impacted the past few years other companies stepped up.
HGA is new but they use a software system to objectively grade as well as use professional authentication, so I believe they are quality.
You can also customize the slab to match the card(a little gimmicky but it's fun and I received these in less than a month vs still waiting 4 months on my Joe Burrow Prizm Rookie I sent to PSA).
Vita Vea Plate Rookie Auto 1/1 It's reversed because a plate is the card The rest of the cards are printed from.
Dante Pettis Plate 1/1 Not worth getting graded but still cool
Kobe Bryant custom slab 9.5 grade
I traded for this card when I was 10 and somehow kept it safe enough to get a 9.5. that's the highest grade in HGAs catalog and would place it in the top 150 or so in the world. Iconic card , the green foil version went for 2 million earlier this year at auction.
HGA made a custom label to match the card and it turned out great imo
I would guess if I auctioned it it could get anywhere from 200-500. There are lower graded versions sitting at $90 bucks. That .5 difference from a 10 reduces the card by about 30%.
Also depends on HGA as a company. They are extremely new to the game, so a lot of people don't want to give them a shot. If in a few years, their grading approach is proven, it will increase.
Some guys will list cards for a couple of grand and just wait out the market. Eventually someone will buy it, cards are pretty volatile at the moment (like watches and crypto) and true value is pretty hard to tell.

Same grade from Beckett, they are more established and reputable, but listed at 1kish
