I dunno, but would you please stop bringing attention to it? I was really hoping it would fly under the radar and I'm nearly tapped out at its current bid.

I can always loan you what you come up short ;)
So much for my safety bid. :( (j/k)

It's not going to go for much more... it isn't a rare back and there aren't any printing marks.

With this being the highest graded (If you don't care about qualifiers, like me) non-altered t206 Wagner card I wouldn't be surprised with that estimate.

It kills me that this card got the MC. I just can't have that in my collection.

It is a freak though because it does have the top of the next card on the bottom poking through. :D

as for the MC, how many MC wagners are out there?
may even get a bump from that, depending on the buyer.
Some here, including myself like to pick up miscuts and printing errors etc, I may just have to bid on this card now, ROFL! :rolleyes:

How is this one the highest graded when the Gretzky/McNall card was a PSA 8 with no qualifiers?

It's the highest non-altered Wagner. The Gretzky card is trimmed.

With the Gretzky Wagner being trimmed (Admitted by Mastro in his legal papers) also there is a PSA 5 NQ, but again I don't care about Qualifiers that are production caused (I know I am in the minority).

Perhaps they should have had GAI grade the card.
That was sarcasm btw. :D
I don't think GAI existed at the time.

because there isnt any graded that fall between a 5 and an 8 and there is only the one 8 (disputed) and two 5's, so it is among the top 3 with a grade assigned to it.

I'm with you on that one also. Great prices to be had on PD, OCs and MCs.. except that Wags of course

I think it will break $3 million, it is, arguably, the top baseball card in existence. the only other two cards for which an argument can be made are the PSA 8 Wagner, which we all know the history of, and the other PSA 5 Wagner. There will be 2-5 big buyers fighting for it, likely buyers who do not collect cards, but just the very top of baseball memorabilia.
