Birthday dilemma regarding a choice between a couple of Mantles.

[CxG Seven Dust]

Have about 7 or 8 hundred to spend.

Both are on ebay.

Mickey Mantle

Can't decide on:

1954 Red Heart PSA 6

1954 Dan Dee SGC 40 (3)


I guess I'm looking for a long term card and figured either one of these are the best choice considering my budget.


Thoughts? Opinions?

Other options within my budget better than these?

Thanks!

Can't go wrong with a Dan Dee. Possibly the best image of Mickey Mantle on a card. Also, my most recent Mick purchase.

Of those 2 choices I also like the DAN DEE the best.

Personally I really like the looks of his 53 Topps or his 54 or 55 Bowman the best.

I love both those cards and images!! When I started collecting Mantles, both were a priority. If you can get a nice looking Dan-Dee you'll treasure it for s long time!

Leaning towards the Dee. The Red Heart though has that beautiful blue background though. Ugh...

Beautiful PSA 4.5!
