What would you value this '58 Mantle at?
 

Was offered this in a trade. Don't believe it has any creases. It does have some paper loss, to the right of his face. Normally I would just look it up, but I'm not really sure with the paper loss.

My Opinion
 

$60-$75

Thanks! Is that because of that paper loss? It was rubbed or something and only took a little paper off. There is also a tiny corner crease on the back that doesn't show up in scans.

I'd say the $60-75 estimate is fair, but it would probably be on the lower side of that. I collect beaters, but between the paper loss and the centering this just isn't the most attractive card. It's technical grade would be something along the lines of a PSA 1, and I would put this closer to the bottom of what those are selling for.

Personally I would not go higher than $75 given the paper loss and poor centering...

Thanks guy! I decided not to go for it after seeing the estimated price range. If it was for my PC, then maybe, but really only looking for '56 Topps cards now. I appreciate the quick and great insight!
