I had a nice surprise the other day. I've been going thru some cards I got in a recent collection I purchased and getting them scanned and added to my Photobucket. I had remembered seeing these Mickey Mantle reprints when I went thru the stuff the first time but I just quickly went by them cause I've seen these many times before. Well, when I started putting these on the scanner I noticed something different on the back of the first one, it had this gold stamped part on the back of the card. I looked at the rest of the regular Topps Mantles and each and every one had this Factory Sealed gold stamping on the back and were completely encased in plastic. These are the one per case hits out of the 1996 Topps, real tough hits back then. So instead of me looking at a $25 Mantle RC reprint, the 52 Topps Reprint case card has a multiplier of 6X - so it's $150. I've actually got six of these case hit cards with the 52 reprint being the best. Now that's cool!!!
