I never get sick of seeing this....and hearing from you! you are just like me....a regular guy with the affinity for these cards.....just right moves at the right time......you are one of my mentors with the savvy you have showed....just like me, sometimes the "little dawg" gets the bone by due diligence , patience, and an understanding and education of these.....sometimes it takes more than just money....;) we are not rich, just smart;)..kudos...well done

Really, really nice!

What does a plank like that go for?

10-15k??

tinkertoeverstochance 07-04-2015 06:07 PM

I can only speculate because the card is so unique, but here are some facts:

I bought it in 2006 for 13K;

The White Plank, a similar but much nicer Plank, sold in 2009 for 26K. So I estimated at the time that this card was worth 1/2 the Whitey;

Whitey sold again in 2013, this time for 92K. :eek: In theory that makes this card worth 46K. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking, there's only one way to know for sure;

I don't plan to sell anytime soon. I like the card more than I like money;

But I can tell you that I was offered 35K last year. I didn't sell it, of course. :)

Story behind this one please ???

Sean you old snake in the grass :eek:

sean...that plank is a beauty...and was certainly a shrewd purchase on your part. Someday it will command 6 figures.

btcarfagno 07-05-2015 07:40 PM

The overprint makes Wags look like he has a Mike Tyson thing going on with his face

Don't be so sure. Given the right bidding environment who knows what two aggressive bidders would do.

your plank will be 100 k + in a decade trust me!
