I understand that a high graded Plank would go for much more than $80k. This is because, of course, there are 100 Planks known to exist, but there are thousands of 1963 Rose rookies out there.
I'm just amazed that people drop this kind of coin to get the highest graded example. Especially because there is a significant likelihood, 1963 not being that far away, that more and more high graded examples will surface. And as many have said, you really can't tell the difference between these high grades, yet people will pay thousands more just because the label says its higher. That is insane to me.
