If I actually had to pay for it myself, then probably neither.
If money were no object, and I could only take one, and I was buying simply based on future expected appreciation, I would probably take the Wagner. If I were buying for my personal collection, I would probably take the Mantle.

The mantle but only because I wouldn’t consider the Wagner more than part of a card. Sure you could say you have a Wagner or part of one, but I couldn’t.

It’s close, but I’d take the Wagner. It’s too iconic and rare of a card compared to the Mantle and would fit perfectly in my HOF portrait run. The Mantle is an amazing card.

Not really close for me.
Granted it’s a higher grade Mantle, but it’s still a card so plentiful I could pick from a selection of 6 on Christmas Day and hundreds are sold each year if not thousands. Wagner is iconic and a needle in a haystack. It feels like I have seen more come up in the past couple years than the decade before due to prices. If the market slows,we may not see another for a year or two. Give me unlimited funds and I want a Wagner. The only other icon of collecting even close is an inverted Jenny and I would that that instead of the Mantle too.
