Rare Tom Brady card to be auctioned

SCARBOROUGH — A rare Tom Brady sports trading card is up for auction on Monday.

The card, which is listed with Saco River Auction Company, was printed in 2002, the year the NFL quarterback won his first Super Bowl.

The 2002 Topps Finest Xfractor is one of 20 such Brady cards issued, and the only one registered with a Professional Sports Authenticator grading of 10, according to the auctioneers. A card with a score of PSA 10 is said to be “virtually perfect,” according to Professional Sports Authenticator grading standards.

“We expect the card will fetch nearly six figures,” states information about the card on the Saco River Auction Company website.

The auction company described the card as beautiful and has given it a presale estimate of $90,000-$100,000.
