While most collectors can barely conceptualize how difficult it would’ve been to cover Jerry Rice on the field, plenty can relate to the difficulty of finding a PSA 10 example of his iconic 1986 Topps #161 rookie card. The '86 Topps set is well-known for its classic green-and-white-bordered design, which looks fantastic but is prone to chipping. Add in the centering issues that often plague Rice’s rookie, and it becomes one of the hardest marquee football cards to track down in high grade.
Only .16% (63 of 40,427) of the examples of this legendary printing to hit the PSA grading floor have earned a PSA 10 grade. And this is one of them. With PWCC-A Eye Appeal designation only enhancing the credentials of this listing, this card is sure to be a great grab for the winning bidder.
The certification number on this card has been checked against the third-party grader's online database and is active as of 06/02/2025.
