Finally crossing Yount off my list!
 
1 Attachment(s)
For whatever reason, the 1977 Topps Robin Yount has been tough on me for 40 years, Lol. When I built my '77 set, I won a registry award--back when such things seemed to matter almost 20 years ago--I didn't dig my Yount.
I have owned a "10" and 6 different 9's...two of which were really nice.
I may have, finally, landed a Yount that has it all for me. The perfectly struck and centered reverse put it over the top. Still looking for a '79...
Here's the Yount I'm bragging about like an idiot...

That's some great 45-45 centering :D:D

I'm playing around from the other thread about those '64 Roses. Mentioned there how I agree with you on the subject

Outstanding example. 79's are difficult to find centered and this one nailed it. Congrats.

Thank you! Are you a Yount collector?

I'm a Johnny Bench collector and have been looking for the right 79 Bench in a PSA 10. No problem finding one but hard to find one that is better looking than the PSA 9 I have. I will eventually find it.

I totally understand. I sold both '77 PSA 10 Palmers snd both '78 Reggie Jackson 10's I have owned.
My ego liked the 10s...my eyes definitely preferred the 9s.
