The answer to this question has to be the 1968 Topps Nolan Ryan. At its peak it was 1500.00. I've sold them as high as 1200.00. It is still 850.00 for NM. The 1968 Bench is 160 NM. In the mid 80's these cards were equal in price. The are both from the same year in low series (Ryan-2nd, Bench-3rd). Bench is arguably the greatest catcher of all time, Ryan is a very good pitcher, but not really elite.
