Value is based on average prices of recently closed auctions. Prices may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the baseball. Signatures that have not been properly authenticated could sell at half the market value or less. Add for inscriptions.
Baseballs with Inscriptions such as "7th no hitter" or if dated by Nolan Ryan, will sell for more. If the baseball was a "game Used" baseball from Nolan Ryan's 7th no-hitter added value will be determined by the quality of the provenance that accompanies the baseball. Even if the signature is properly authenticated the baseball needs to be authenticated as a "7th no hitter game baseball"
The added valued as a 'game used' 7th no hitter baseball will rely on your ability to prove so. Otherwise it would be valued as a Used Major League Baseball signed by Nolan Ryan and could lower the value based on condition. A clean white baseball would be preferred to display the signature. A "Game used" baseball would have to be accompanied with provenance, and the quality of the provenance will dictate the added value. A letter from a player, team, or League official would be acceptable. A letter from a fan at the game would not hold much weight if any. Without provenance the added value will rely on the buyers belief in your story.
