Easily Duncan's best card ever made. I'd be curious to see what the reported sales were of that card a decade ago.

You thinking it's higher now or then?

Unfortunately I would say lower today only do to the fact that Duncan doesn't seem to be as collected now a days as the first few years. I've got an old beckett somewhere that may show the reported sales for this card or the red version.

Yea, that makes sense. I'd just counter with 2 points:

1. Duncan has solidified himself as one of, if not the, greatest power forwards of all time
2. Collectors having a renewed interest in 90's cards

Either way, I agree it would be interesting to see what it went for back then and watch this one. It's an absolutely phenomenal card.

Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if it did bring what it brought back then, but if I had to bet on it, I would say no. I remember that their was a local craze at the stores like Walmart, Target, and Kmart because everyone was trying to find a box of Topps Chrome. His TC card was selling for $120 like a hot cake.

The crazy thing is as good as Duncan is/was and possibly being the greatest power forward of all-time, you still are going to have many people (Including myself) not look at him in that way. I mean I still put people like Barkley, Mchale, Garnett, Rodman, Baylor as being better even though Duncan has clearly had a bigger impact for his team in the long term than most if not all of the guys I mentioned. His quiet demeanor has really hurt his status as being the best. I guess it doesnt matter to him or to thoughs who really know how good he is.

regardless of his quiet play he is better than all the players you named no doubt, his knowledge of the game and perfection of the simple things are unreal.

He is also a product of being put into a good system. Pop and that coaching staff really know how to coach a team and understand where they need to put their players in order for them to succeed at their fullest. When KG was with the Wolves I knew that KG was a better and more athletic player but Duncan was on a better team. Heck I would always watch them go to head and Kg always out performed him in every category including blocking 90% of the time. When Duncan entered as a rookie he had David Robinson to help school him along. There is no doubt the guy is one of the greatest Power forwards but if KG wins another ring this year do not be suprised if the media and writer pass by Duncan and start naming KG as one of the best if not the best power forward of our time.

Duncan made the system, not the other way around.

I would argue that his fleer showcase legacy masterpieces 1/1's are better cards, or at least in competition with the PMG green.
