I guess part of the question for me is whether the buyer plans to cross it over to PSA. Obviously that takes some real boldness. But if they did, are they assuming it would cross to a PSA 9? And what would a PSA 9 be worth?

But maybe it would cross lower?

But the odds are good that the buyer isn�t planning to do anything more than stick it in the vault at home and wait for it to go up.

But then it becomes one of what, 6 PSA 9s along with 3 10s? Kinda loses its claim to fame.

Likely.

I guess I was musing about whether a PSA 9 would be worth $15M or $20M, in which case it might make sense to cross it over. You could still claim that it�s the same card, with the same claim to fame, but now with a PSA flip to add to the flip collection.

Of course, it�s not my card to faff with, and I doubt I would touch it, even it if were mine.

Plus the added benefit that at $15M or $20M, the people who freak about $12M will get that much more excited.

Mr mint was always known as a man of integrity and his salemanship was free from hyperbole.
