A Ruth rookie (m101) will never catch up to the Wagner it would seem, but it’s probably top 5 to get closer, maybe 60 percent of a Wagner long term pricing ?? so why the shock for a NM Ruth rookie with a Low population for the grade ?
We all have seen the Ruth rookie going up at astronomical rates. It’s not stopping anytime soon.
Wow PhillyFan you nailed it.

The Card brought almost 2.5 million dollars last night.
Sold just a few years ago for 600K so a 4 multiplier in just a few years.

Lot's of new money in the collection hobby
