Hank Aaron

Steve Carlton

Bob Gibson

Reggie Jackson

Sandy Koufax

Eddie Mathews

Willie Mays

Joe Morgan

Cal Ripken Jr.

Brooks Robinson

Frank Robinson

Jackie Robinson

Mike Schmidt

Tom Seaver

Warren Spahn

Yaz



Second question. Net-net, all things considered equal, where do you see the "best relative value" in terms of potential ROI on baseball Hall of Fame caliber players?



1950s: PSA 4, 5, 6+



1960s PSA 7+



1970s: PSA 8+



1980s: PSA 9+



Also, if you think that, say, 1960s in a PSA 5 represent the best relative value, let me know. The above doesn't reflect strict criteria but is rather a starting point.



Thanks in advance!
Honestly, I don't see Carlton, Spahn, Mathews, Morgan, Schmidt, or Seaver (except for 60s) ever being good investments. In my corner of the world, no one has ever put those players into other worldly God status.
