Below the 7 and 8 level on those two cards you will see jockeying in values not respective of their flips. I can post numerous examples but it's common sense if you are watching what is going on. I routinely see '51 and '52 Micks in 2,3,4,5 and sometimes 6 grades that underperform their lower number counterparts which have better visual appeal. It only happens almost every single day.

I agree with that as well. I would expect your 2.5 52 Mantle to outsell some of the jacked up 4s that have been going in the low to mid 20s in the same auction. Same with any of the 50s rookies that are so popular right now. A nice dead center low to mid grade card can easily bring a price a grade or two above recent sales. But on higher grades where one grade means a jump of 100% or more in price it won't happen.
