With this super-heated market, I wish I'd kept my Pele cards. I had a Heinerle, a black and white Verlag, and three different Argentinean cards including that long one Jason shows at bottom left.

I sold my Alifabolaget PSA 8.5 a few years ago for $13,500 USD and it was a record sale back then. Then about a year later it sold for about ten-thousand more. Today, it’s probably worth quarter of a million. My mother wants to kill me for selling it cause’ she grew up watching him play.

I am glad to have picked up these but in hindsight should have done much more with Pele.

I hesitate to mention it, but I do have this rarity as spare. I have a PSA 3.5 shown above, but the color is honestly better on this one.
I'd explore letting it go if another board member needed it, even though valuing it is pretty tough. It's one of my favorite Pele cards.

Jason I used to have that one in a substantially higher grade. I sold it to another board member. One of the worst card-selling decisions I made...
BTW, they aren't hand cut; PSA pulled that idea out their @$$.

Absolutely -- thank you for making that point!! Not hand cut! The classification of the card is all wrong as well, and I think you may have contributed to a great Net54 thread many years ago about this issue. If memory serves it should more accurately be called a 1968 Crack Tarjeton Autografiadas, or something like that. Please excuse any sloppiness there! This is my other example up close -- was it yours? I believe it's still the highest graded PSA example. Still kind of like the PSA 1 better with respect to color...
