Jerry,

It's tough to put a value on it due to it being game prepared. I do know that an executive with the Padres sold about a half dozen NIB La Primera Serie baseballs a few years back on eBay. If my memory serves me correctly they were selling anywhere from $75-$150.

It's a rare ball for sure but not impossible to find. It took me a few years but I eventually found one for my collection. However, I had to settle for one with an autograph on it. I believe it's the first baseball with multi-colored laces to be used in a official regular season game. If you ever wanted to sell it you wouldn't have any shortage of buyers and I think it would do well on eBay. I know I'd make a strong run at it!

Cheers,
Joe

P.s. If you care to share where you found this beauty at I'd love to hear.
