If your friend is set on just getting a single Mantle card in that price range...
I'd get one of these:
  • 51 Bowman RC in low grade (1.5-2)
  • 53 Topps in mid grade (5-6)
  • 56 Topps in high grade (7-8)

All three iconic Mantle cards.

If I was an investor, I would avoid the white letters 1969 Mantle. It's easy to just make one of this variation out of a normal yellow letters Mantle. I find it difficult to believe there won't be an ever increasing supply that makes the value diminish.

As others said 1951 Bowman ,
One that looks real good with good registry and no roller marks

These 3 would have been my choices as well.

An unconventional choice would be a Star Cal. Beautiful item and compared to almost anything else, scarce.

I would get the best beater 51 Bowman or if graded the highest graded 58 Topps All-Star. Those are my favorite 2 Mantle cards.
