Obviously the price depends largely upon the condition. If one was to be auctioned and it had no back damage and somewhere in the vicinity of VG/EX to EX, it would probably sell for about $200-300. Although, with news of his retirement at season's end, perhaps a slight premium above that.

A Cox card with back damage is worth under $100. Cards with back damage or tape residue are the standard, although they are far less desirable.

I'd be interested in one with back damage as long as the front was decent for my Braves team collection. Thanks for the info. Jeff

That because that is one of the Bobby Cox cards made during his playing career and being a good two years before his Topps RC; there is actually upside potential in that card.

You have a very difficult card to obtain (The first series is harder than the last couple of that year for the Venezuelan cards) and the 1st card of a future HOFer (even as a manager)

I think if you were making a list of underrated cards; that Cox card would be amongst them. I wonder what Phil G thinks of that card

Reading the other Venezuelan thread and stumbled upon this one. Great knowledge being dropped by Josh Alpert, who is the king of Venezuelans. I'm salivating over that complete Yaz run. Does anybody know if that guy still comes around here?
