Default Does that mean it originally came from a lake?

Since the T206 Wagner is such a small card I would probably just end up throwing it back into the lake.

But seriously, I would almost instantly start shopping it around to auction houses.

Default Hype

I would get with Joe O and hype the heck out of it on all forms of social media for awhile and then put it on eBay for $19.5 million BIN
I would certainly include the story in my description about finding it in grandpas attic because that is so popular. Then someone would offer me 20.5 mill and I would let it go regretfully. I would then buy an Aston Martin Vanquish and an island.

I'd sell it, pay off my debts, set up a nice college fund for the kids, and buy some more interesting cards -- starting with that Buck Ewing N167 in the REA preview.

That's Cold Pete. I may get a E121 Ruth with some of the coin. You are welcome in the island. Everyone is welcome except for the rabid anti-dentites
I was thinking something Carribean.
