Derek Jeter 1993 Upper Deck RookieEver since Derek Jeter reached the 3,000 hit plateau, he punched his ticket into the hall of fame. This Upper Deck rookie card of Jeter values at around $25 – 35  bucks. There is a version of this card in the 1993 Upper Deck factory set which has a little gold hologram on the back, which is worth slightly more.

Professionally graded cards are worth much more, a Beckett grade of ’10′ can go for $200 dollars, and only go up as time goes on.

Derek Jeter is the only Yankee to ever reach the 3,000 hit milestone, in the franchise’s storied history. He is also only the second major league baseball player to hit a homer for his 3,000 hit. Wade Boggs was the other. Check out the video for a cool Jeter retrospective.
