My business sense tells me to maximize profit, he shall cut the card in half to make a pair of serial-numbered parallels: .5/1.

Then sell only one of them 'cheaply,' for say $4 million (as a mere tease).

A rich guy, of course, will immediately buy it. DUH!

But here's the kicker: Offer to sell him the other half of 'his' card for $18 million, FIRM, so he can (solely) own the entire thing and not just a laughably measly portion of it.

The seller will have him over a barrel and many laughs (and soon many fancily-expensive vacations) will ensue.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
