For me it is a new exemple since i do not have this pic in my plank gallery..
strange blue color on this card... missing color ?

Impatient to see the final result

[t206hound]

I see that T206Resource just added it (as #55). This is odd/interesting "new" Plank since it's in an older slab...

it is my conclusion too.. old slab but new card.. probably in a collection since long time...

the blue background is strange... it is a factory missing color ? a color variation ? look like erase mark..

I recall seeing this Plank about 8 or 9 years ago, but I don't recall where. The lightness of the coloring is due to 2 horizontal erasures on either side of Plank's head, and another erasure mark above his head.

The Plank should have been slabbed an "A" because of the erasure marks...right???

It is my opinion too... my Magie have a slight erase mark and it is slabbed 'A' by PSA

It certainly seems like it should have been graded Authentic to me.

I was thinking the same, definitely should be in an A holder now.

Still a great card...one can dream.

[ullmandds]

I really like this plank... It looks like a watercolor!!! I think it will do pretty well!

I'll take a stab at it and say $19K.

On a related note, all the scans of cards in the legendary auction have either too much brightness or too much contrast going on. It's not horrible, but it prevents a bidder from getting an accurate representation of the colors and clarity on a card. I'm tempted to shoot them an email on this, but I'm not really bidding on any cards in their auction.

I'm guessing that it reaches $30,000.

[g_vezina_c55]

And my guess is probably 28

[scmavl]

$22,500

[Shoele$$]

Definitely looks like the card was made to look like Plank had clouds behind him, lol. Somebody took an eraser to the blue on this one. For that reason alone I'd pass....but then again, I'm a little picky. Writing marks are o.k. But somebody taking an eraser to a card is an automatic DQ in my world.

I'm guessing it ends around $18,000-$20,000

[bbcard1]

The last one that came to market, I guessed pretty high. I really can't rationalize why a collector would pay more than one would for a new Kia. But that's just me. Let's see if it blows by $15K.

[g_vezina_c55]

Auction open tomorow ! Happy bidding

first day of bidding and 15 000

Honestly Nelson I'd rather have your Plank even though it's fairly worn down vs. this one that somebody took an eraser to and altered the front of the card. Give me a "well loved" vintage over an altered any day of the week

It's getting interesting, I'm wondering if it's gonna be one of the those with all the action on day one, then taper off with small increments till the end. Well so far my prediction of 18-20K is still hanging on, lol.

[g_vezina_c55]

The fee are 19.5%

16k + fee = arround 19 120 now....

Come on Nelson, throw a bid out there, add one more to the collection

[g_vezina_c55]

Lol 1 is enough

[g_vezina_c55]

Auction end.

Anyone can explain to me why the card is now disapear from the auction ????
And no final price ??

[Rob D.]

Final price was $18,000 plus 19.5 percent juice. Right about where you'd expect a lower-end 1 to sell for. In Legendary, Day 1 lots aren't on the site during Day 2. It should be back tomorrow.

[g_vezina_c55]

Wow if that card sold for 21 500 it is a big bargain

It is strange...i saw the other auction..but if i try to find the plank with the search engine..no result

Not really. I think it sold for what it should. It's not like low-end Planks in 1 holders routinely sell for $30,000.

[ullmandds]

Ouch!

I think 25 is the corect price for that card.
