I should have known that posting this on net54 would be a 100%, no doubt about it, absolute waste of time..... I must admit, i was warned by a couple of people.

I don't think it's a waste of time, people who know about the set are giving you real answers. I too think it's probably around 50 K. I think that's a crazy number, and a realistic number at the same time.

I can't see paying $40-50K for the card. Once you are talking that much money, you're competing against some other really nice choices. I know that I'd rather be able to say that I owned a $50K T206 Plank than a $50K T206 Old Mill Blue back.

I'd put the over/under at $25k.

Over 25k. Not sure if you were hoping to hear of something like less than 5k, but I think that card is worth over 25k.

Default blue om

alot of great answers so far......another found would legitimize it possibly....i don't feel this is a 50 k plus card......i find brown om much more appealing , since brown om are actual printers scrap....if this was a hand cut card, i would put it at 25 k or better......if blue om were comparable to brown om and other examples were found, especially hand cut as if off a sheet the printer was experimenting with ink, then the skys the limit...


but, that is not the case with this card...

i put it at 5k-10k purely as a curiousity




.....why has it been held a secret for this long????????????

i'm not feeling this one ....through my ignorance with it... please forgive me, and in all due respect....it just doesn't" do it for me".....

only one man 's opinion, and you know what they say about those


Kevin, wish you all the luck with this card...i dont know the seller but wish him luck also....




Please let us know what the hammer is!! don't hold out

If that card were offered in REA or another major auction, it's realistic to think it would bring at least $40,000-$50,000.

I would definitely think north of $20K. $20-40K would be my estimate. Just depends who wants it at auction. How many high rollers want it after it hits $20K?

Most of the "high rollers" are not variation collectors, nor upgraders, they focus more on completion of extremely difficult sets. Many of them could care less what's on the back.

Edited to add, I have held the card and louped it front and back and feel it's legit, even after I first had reservations.

Call me crazy but I actually think the card would be worth more if another surfaced... This would give a bit of legitimacy to the card. Right now, I feel like it is hard to discount the fact that this may just be a freak because of the failure to change ink, color fading, etc. I know back collectors can pay crazy prices, but I can conceivably see this card being a $10k or less card.
