If you had 10k to spend on one card. What would it be?

[gt2590]

No idea on price, pretty sure I could get a Rickey Henderson PSA 10 RC.

And should have enough left for a Mariano Rivera PSA 10 RC.

Otherwise, as many PSA 8+ 1954 Topps as I can get...

If it was just one card I'd probably go with the Highest Grade Jackie Robinson 48 Leaf I could get. Runner up would be an 8 Clemente

Griffey Red Crusade...and a game used jersey,bat,or glove with the leftover.

I'd have a tough time deciding between a '52 mantle and this for my McGwire collection:

'02 Signs of Greatness McGwire/Ruth/Dimaggio/Mantle/Griffey/Sosa auto

I've actually considered this very thing a few times over the past few years but in the end just got gun shy and never pulled the trigger. I have nailed it down to 2 or 3 cards that I would be willing to pick up if and when I decide to bite.

The first 2 are...

I am really torn between both of these cards. Both hold a special place with me as I have had both (not graded) in the past and sold them when I was too young to really know what I had, and for far less then I should have. Also, they both just seem to be true undisputed iconic cards of the hobby and even non hobbyists could/would appreciate seeing and holding them. If and when the times comes that decide to pull the trigger, the first 2 that will take consideration are these with perhaps a slight preference to the Mantle, but that changed daily.


Alternatively, the single card I would really want the most is this card below, still far shy of $10K but could very well be the card I want the most, and if I get to the point where I am sinking thousands in cards again, this could very well be my first purchase if and when one ever comes up.

Probably around 10 years ago I bid $2,000 on a PSA 10 Andre Dawson Rookie card and got outbid in the last minute of the auction. That is the one card that I would buy. They go for around $4,000 now. Then I would buy the PSA 10 Andre Dawson 1996 Select Certified Mirror Gold that a seller will have on Ebay for the rest of his/her life if he/she never drops his/her $2,500 price tag. But if I had 10k I would take it off his/her hands.

Love those choices

Prob the 52 Mantle. Seems like a solid investment.

Was thinking of saying Michael Jordan's rookie, but figured I'd go the baseball route

You can't go wrong with a 1952 Topps #311 .

I would be procuring a Christy Mathewson autograph for sure.
