And because every post should include a pic....
When I bought my wife her engagement diamond back in 2001, she said I should have my own special engagement 'thing' as well.
Within a couple days I found this guy, sitting in a GAI 2.5 holder. They were super fresh to TPG at the time and I thought there was an excellent chance the card was fine and had just found it's way in to their holders to maximize grade.
Well, it was my kind of 'great looking for the grade' card and every cent we could afford (sort of afford ) at 4K. She didn't blink, kissed me, said happy engagement and told me to hit the bid button with 10 seconds left on the ebay sale.
Probably the only card I could never sell, even though I have promised myself that all my cards should get passed along to the kids where they can maximize the profit by benefiting from inheritance treatment of such valuables.
May it be worth $200,000 one day and buy them something wonderful that they can enjoy as much as I enjoy this piece of colorized cardboard.
