Most valuable card

[rats60]

Ken Kendrick’s Wagner. He has been offered 10 million for it. He hasn’t been offered that for his PSA 10 Mantle. I would think the Baltimore News Ruth would go for more than the Mantle too. The Wagner and Ruth are unique cards. There are 3 of the Mantles.

What is the story behind that Wagner getting a "MC" designation?

Are the Luis Robert rookies still going strong?

I would want to guess T206 Wagner, but I guess you never know with the way the modern stuff sells. Rob

Most valuable card? Probably some Diamond Rainbow Purple Super-duper Refractor card of Mike Trout (#'ed /5).

that Goldin was soon going to auction off a Trout Superfractor RC that is expected to be the highest price ever paid for a baseball card-

Vegas Dave said that he would sell his Trout Superfractor for 5 million, not that it would sell for that. So it is not Trout, at least right now.

I thought Vegas Dave consigned that card to Goldin's summer auction? Definitely won't be a $5 million card, but given that a #/5 red refractor sold for $922,500, the superfractor should go significantly higher.

Especially now with baseball season [maybe] starting

For the uninitiated, what is the difference between a refractor and a superrefractor?

Fixed your post. With Wagner and Ruth you are looking at dozens down to several total cards. Not the quantity of a card that has achieved a certain opinion from a 3rd party.

Scott I *THINK* Rats meant that there are only THREE PSA 10 Mantles. But as I am not a registry and pop report guy, I don't know for sure.
Meaning Rats was trying to contextualize the 1 Kendricks Wagner, to the three PSA 10 Mantles.
Thats how I read it anyway.
I could be wrong, but I think thats how he was trying to compare the two, not the "run of the mill '52 Mantle" only the 3 known "10s".


All this aside, I personally would rather have have a mere "PSA 6-7 Mantle".
Owning a Wagner puts you on the world map in a sense, and I don't personally care to be in that spotlight.

Not taking anything away from any Wagner owners, but its just not something I aspire to own.
