I know that everything he has is quite off grade.But this particular card has my interest because of being the last card in a set that is one of the most iconic sets' in the hobby.Thanks.

Like Swarmee stated above, it is also his RC.

That, currently, is my most sought after 52 Topps card. I was hoping to do a trade, for my Beehives, around Christmas time with another member here who's brother also has one, and many other 52 Topps cards, but unfortunately, his brother does not want to sell any of his cards.

Well that is a much better copy than the one I may end up with.Looking at the condition,I would say that that would be an expensive card.Maybe he will change his mind and you may still end up with the card.Good luck.And yes it is his rookie and I am sure that is another reason why it is so pricey.Can you imagine if Mantle would have been the last card in the set.
