Population Context
The 2004 Topps Jeter base card is commonly submitted to PSA and BGS given Jeter's popularity. PSA 10s exist in reasonable numbers but centering can be an issue with this era of Topps cards, making gem mint copies harder to find than one might expect. PSA 9s are the most commonly returned grade. The gold and black parallels are far less frequently submitted but command more attention when graded.
Collector Notes
Centering is the primary concern with 2004 Topps base cards — many copies suffer from left-to-right or top-to-bottom centering issues that prevent PSA 10 grades. Look for well-centered copies with sharp corners and clean surfaces when buying raw. The Gold parallel is a popular and attainable chase for Jeter player collectors. The Black parallel (#/53) is a true short print worth hunting. When grading, submit only the sharpest raw copies as the centering issue in this print run makes high grades competitive.
