Not sure to me the 52 Topps Mantle is one of the big 5 cards in the hobby (T206 Wagner, T206 Plank, 1933 Goudy Lajoie, 1914 Baltimore news Ruth and the 52 Topps Mantle...not in any specific order) I believe a 8.5 is worth at least 300 000$ easy....and I would pay that much if I had the money to do so to own this important card in this high grade.
To me modern cards that are made to be rare are the insanity of this hobby!!!
Mantle is a BIG part of this hobby...it does not need to be rare when it comes to Mantle there are way more Mantle collectors out there compared to his cards!!! I also believe a PSA 10 is worth over 1$ million dollars as well!!! I would rather have a PSA 10 52 Topps Mantle than any card in the hobby except maybe the 1914 Baltimore news Ruth even then I am not sure.
