Default Most Valuable Card in your Collection

Cards in our collections come and go, often with joy or agony. What is the most valuable card you are holding now? I will start with my '33 Goudey Ruth#53 PSA4 with a Turkey Red Cobb SGC4 a close second.
I totally understand if anyone cares not to disclose.

This card isn't worth the most to the market, but it's worth the most to me.

...Disregard. It looks like my account is restricted from uploading photos larger than a thumbnail. I was going to post a photo of my 52 Topps Jackie Robinson, but I'm sure everyone here knows what that looks like already. So just picture a big red card with white borders.

The three cards in my collection that probably mean the most to me...

-52 Topps Mantle is the most "valuable"...the card I always wanted but could never afford when I first started collecting.
-T207 Weaver is my current favorite (I love collecting Black Sox cards)
-84 FleerU Puckett...I was a huge Puckett/Twins fan when I was younger and first got into baseball and card collecting.

cards

I don't think it's just your account.. I've always wondered how this board only allows miniscule images to be attached in 2021...

but anyways, what was your card??

Ya, this forum could benefit greatly from some updated software and ImageMagick. I would switch everything over to Xenforo if I were the admin. They have some great forum software that could completely transform the user experience here. Especially with respect to the B/S/T threads, easily uploading pics of all sizes that get converted to ideal sizes that fit within the thread (so no more massive photos that blow up a page, and no more thumbnail sized pics). Also helps tremendously with organizing the sub forums and makes content easier to find. Also much better search functionality and capability. Also can search PMs efficiently. Can set up private group threads and implement all sorts of controls. Can "like" posts. Can maintain a user feedback rating for the B/S/T threads where buyers and sellers leave feedback just like you would on ebay. It also can be used via iPhone or Android app. Just click on the Net54 app on your phone and everything is perfectly formatted.

I know people will start accusing me of being a Xenforo shill now, but it really is great forum software. And it wouldn't be too difficult or costly to convert.

My card was a 52 Topps Jackie Robinson for most valuable to me, and a basketball card (lebron james RC with Michael jordan dual auto) for most valuable to the market.

My stuff pales in comparison to everyone else's, but I was glad to find this variation.

Would have to be my 69 Topps Mantle WL. Thankfully it was purchased a while ago when it was very expensive but not unreachable.

I would not be able to get one today, even in the condition I own. Grades probably a fair at best. But it is mine now.

I love that Cy, Leon. The red lettering with red background is beautiful! This Goudey Ruth would be mine.

This, and nothing else is even close. I got it just before the Covid boom. If I was shopping now it would be well out of reach.
