At my safety deposit box today, thought I would share 52 Topps Mantle

Thanks for the feedback so far. I sent an inquiry to PSA last year about the option to drop it off. I was told that they are a closed secure facility and do not allow drop off in person.

Taking it to the National is not something I can do. So I still have the mail in option. What I paid for it 10 years ago seems like a pittance compared to current value. It is one of the few investments I have made that actually worked out well.

I have been close to selling when it was about $6000, then again at $10,000, at $15,000, and even at $20,000. Each time it was just pure luck that resulted in me keeping it.

Another question I have that is open for feedback, is what is your opinion on where the value of low grade 52 Topps Mantle's will go. I have expected prices to level out every step of the way, and they haven't.

Send it registered mail. 99.99999999999999 percent chance it gets there, if you are worried. A card like that should be slabbed.

Sadly, with current pricing, it will cost you at least $1K to get this slabbed with PSA. So be ready to pay!
