And how much enjoyment would you get from the 1.5 considering there are a lot out there of lower grade. How much enjoyment would you get from a different card knowing it is truly rare.
Personally, I don't give a rat's ass about the numbers on slabs; I am just interested in the cards in the slabs.

I want to supplement my answer: i considered the OP's exact scenario several years ago and decided that I get more enjoyment from my Festival of Bric-a-Brac than I would from a Mantle sitting in my safe deposit box. Aa an investor, I would prefer the Mantle.
