What is the most valuable card you have that you pulled from a wax pack as a child?

I started buying cards in 1971 but I remember the 1972 Mets Team card as being the best card to have (I think 3rd series) followed by Tom Seaver in one of the later series

Ok so I'm a dinosour. Turned 70 in July. All I can say is I had a ball with my cards as a kid. Me and my large bottle of Elmer's Glue made for some crazy baseball card memories. Oh how i wished Mickey was playing for my beloved Red Sox in 1955. I was ten years old. Yeh I had his card but I needed him on my team, you understand. So get out the Mick and the Glue. Using a new pair of school "saftey" sizzors I carefully make the trade of the year. Mickey's face on my Frank Malzone's card, perfect. Cut the name/ team from the bottom and presto Mickey is now playing centerfield with Ted in left and Jackie Jenson in right. Thanks Elmer. Also, hold onto your Vern Stephen's but in 1957 in 12 and need a halloween costume (only home made costumes in my home) my Mom say why not go out trick or treating as "Baseball Card Man". I'm not making this stuff up. Well, bring out the 52-56's and of course the Large bottle of Elmers Glue. An old shirt and pants and glue em on. Cards glued to an old baseball hat with flaps made from cards and I was Baseball Card Man. Final look as something like the Creature From the Black Lagoon. Oh being a Kid in the mid 50's was just great fun. Still have some of the 50's cards that Elmer never came in contact with, pun intended . Jim

All the cards I opened from 1958-1964 live elsewhere these days. I swapped them to a student back in the 1970's. In 1960 I saved my money and bought whole boxes for $1.20 each.I recall loads of 1960 Yastrzemski cards at the time, I kept getting that rookie with the weird name. I also remember finding a store with high series 1962 and having bunch of those.
