Most Valuable Cards in the hobby

I believe that condition adds to rarity, but that's a debate for a different thread.

This isn't a thread about the rarest cards in the hobby, but the most valuable, and I hate to say it, but none of our cards hold any value past what someone is willing to pay for them thus making these cards completely valid in the discussion.

Have to agree with JHS here. Even though it's not my niche, and I don't understand why people collect the way they do (but more power to them, hip hip hoorah), the original question only has to do with value-

I haven't given my input since most cards I would mention have already brought up. I did want to add, though, that I do agree with ULLMAN. I took the discussion meaning that no matter what condition you find that particular card in, would it be bring more money than other cards. For instance the t206 Wagner always breaks the $100,000, even when the sides and top are cut off.

So I think the question is grade for grade what is the most valuable. Since most of the cards previously discussed will NEVER be Gem Mint, we have to bring the other cards down to their level and assume the cards are all in VG condition or worse.
