But that's just me.

PS - my "holy grail" of awards would be the Silver Slugger Bat awarded to Roberto Clemente that was dented by his sons played baseball with it.

At a baseball card show in Orange County, CA sometime during the mid-1980s Joe L. Brown brought Clemente's 1965 Batting Leaders Silver Bat for display. (Brown was a resident in South Orange County.) It was in a clear plastic case, and yes, it had a dent in it. Brown allowed me to hold it, which pleased me immensely as Clemente is one of my all-time heroes.
Happy collecting!
