Guess The Hammer Price 1952 Mantle

[GasHouseGang]

I decided to pull this out of the other thread, and see if we can get some opinions. Most people decided #2 was the Mantle they would choose. Now let see what you think the final hammer price these will end at at auction. Number 3 shown already sold in REA's Spring auction for $180K.

#1


#2 AND #3

If the colors are true I would agree, #2 is the best looking card.

Mantle #1 sold in April 2016 for $294K according to VCP. Any guesses of what it will sell for this time? Is the latest price run-up over, or will this card continue to go up? How about the Mantle #2? Will it surpass the PSA graded copy?

I see the point you're trying to make but doubt the auction results will reflect the board's opinion. 330k for the PSA, 210k for the SGC.

You may be right. I figure this card is so out of the league for most of us, that we really have no concept of what it should sell for. That's why I gave recently realized prices, but it's probably hard for most of us to know which way the market is really going for the high-end material.

You may be right. And it is stupid. Number 2 (if colors sre true as another person mentioned) BLOWS AWAY number 1. In fact, i like both sgc cards much better than the psa. Guys buying holders instead of cards really bothers me.

People are selling 'independent' opinions....if there was no holder every seller would be saying their card is 'mint' would be so many returns..

Well, the PSA Mantle finished at $306,250 in the Goldin Auction. I wonder how the SGC will fair? Nearly everyone seemed to pick it over the PSA example, but I wonder if it will be able to top $306K?

My money says no. PSA, although I hate to admit it, seems to always, (based on what I have seen) come out on top price wise.

Goldin sold #2 two months ago for 180k. Now Goodwin is selling it.and it is at 170k with 2 days left.
