Photo: Paul Skenes 1-of-1 Rookie Card Graded as Perfect 10; Pulled by 11-Year-Old

Paul Skenes' 1-of-1 autographed MLB debut patch card received a perfect grade of 10 by Professional Sports Authenticators (PSA).

The card, which features an autograph as well as a patch worn by the Pittsburgh Pirates ace during his MLB debut, was pulled by an 11-year-old collector from Los Angeles. Topps made the announcement on Tuesday.

Attributes for a card to received a grade of 10 include four perfectly sharp corners, sharp focus and full original gloss (via PSA). A perfect card must be free of staining of any kind and the image must also be centered on the card.

When the card featuring Skenes was first revealed, the Pirates declared their intent to secure it. They offered several incentives for whoever pulled the card including including two Pirates season tickets behind home plate for 30 years, a meet-and-greet with Skenes and two autographed jerseys from the pitcher.

The 22-year-old is coming off an impressive rookie season, as he was named National League Rookie of the Year to go along with an All-Star nod. In 23 starts, Skenes compiled an 11-3 record to go along with a 1.96 ERA and 0.947 WHIP.

He also struck out 170 batters while allowing just 32 walks in 133 innings of work.

The value of the card is already high, as Topps estimated that it could ultimately be worth six figures (h/t Sports Collectors Digest). Considering Skenes' strong rookie season, it's easy to see the card fetching a hefty price at auction.

With a perfect PSA grading, the card's value is continuing to increase.
