Your '52 Mantle, as you know, is highly liquid. Depending on its condition it could sell for over $2000. If the card brings you more enjoyment than an equivalent value in antiquities, bullion, paintings or bearer bonds, then keep it. Since you ask what others would buy with the value from your card, I would put the $2000 to my baseball card wantlist, and buy whichever priority cards become available first.
But it sounds like you do not have an existing wantlist with priority cards. If what you are asking is what better baseball card investments are available in that price range, I have no expertise there.
Good luck,
Gilbert
