Yep. That was a nice looking '51 Mantle. I bought a boyhood collection from an 80 year old friend who had opened a lot of packs back in '51, 52, and 53. He had 2 rookie Mantles and 1 Mays. The Mantles graded 3 and 3.5. I think you got the 3.5 and I sold the 3 to another dealer. If I remember correctly(possibly not), I sold it on Ebay for $6K at the time in 2019. I think you did pretty good holding onto it since then. Congrats!
Just checked VCP. Actually sold for $6500!!!
