I wouldn't trade my collection for all the T206 Wagner cards. I seriously enjoy my collection and wouldn't enjoy the Wagner cards at all.

Trading for a card worth way more than what you have just to sell and rebuy your old cards makes about as much sense as using a wish for more wishes.

Default T206 Collins (Batting)

So for me, this is THE card. T206 proof, 1 of 1, undisputed Hall of Famer, 1939 HOF inductee. Congrats Keith O.

If the question was do you want a free T206 Wagner to sell I would be all over that. I don't collect T206s or Wagner so why would I want to give up a collection I love for something I wouldn't like.

I've actually considered this as a possibility for helping my heir.

My son has no interest in card collecting. When I'm gone, the idea of him having to deal with selling a collection of hundreds of complete sets dating back to the 40's is frightening. By getting rid of all the sets and converting them to a few simple high value cards might make a lot of sense for him.

Given the condition that we don't have to give up all of our collection, only most of it, there are plenty of cards I could name that I'd make the trade for. Certainly a T206 Wagner, a BN Ruth, a T210 Jackson, or a Cobb/Cobb, but dozens of other lesser known cards as well.

In most of those cases I wouldn't trade all of my current collection, there being quite a few unique cards that I couldn't bear to part with. Then again, for $6 million, I suppose I could learn to get over it.
