Regarding the T206 Wagner comment, if the Gretzky Rookie (the hand cut card that PSA graded an 8 "never get cheated"), ever went to auction, it would crush $6mm. I put the over/under at $20mm, and the next time it sold, it would be double that.
I would take the over. That Wagner will always be the most valuable card. The Baltimore News is the only card that could catch it and it would take a similar high grade example that may not exist.

As for the 52 Topps Mantle, at least 2 of the 3 10s are being held by deep pockets. The 9 is realistically the best one available to new collectors/ investors. That will continue to drive the price on a 9 higher.
