I wonder ---Ok, not really since I'm pretty sure I know the answer.

If you put The 52 Mantle, the 1795 gold coin and a half million dollar piece of art in three storefronts next to each other sideshow style charging some minimal bit to see it - Which would have the longest line?

The likely answer isn't the one I like, but that's sort of the point.

I would buy a mid grade Mantle and head for the art line.

If I had 500k to blow on art or cards I think I'd get the Mantle in a 6 or 7 and have enough left over for a t206 wagner psa or sgc 1.

Right now I know I am in the minority, but I would run from 52' Mantles at this moment like buying a home in the spring of 06'.

They will never be cheap but the market can't sustain this.
