Latest '61 poppage, sweet!!

corvette1340

I just got my latest '61 poppage and was really pleased with most of the grades. I was especially pleased with the Yaz, Mantle slams 2 HR, and Sheldon high#. I gave $15 for the Sheldon and check out the auction where I bought the Yaz.

With respect to the Yaz...I hate it when that happens to other people...seriously though GREAT pick, great eye, great card...CONGRATS!

Im gonna keep the Yaz for my set but what would it be worth at auction since its one of only 2 of them? I guess there isnt a precedent but what would you guys think?

There are 9's though. My guess is it's a $200-$275 card. Certainly somewhere in there. i paid $130 for my 8.

thanks, I figured between 200-300, but would be worth more to me to keep in my set. Judging by what the partial graded '61 sets have been doing on ebay, mine would fetch 7-8000 right now. I have about 200 graded and about 40% are 8's, 40% 7's, 15% 6's, and 5% 5's. Most of the star and high numbers are at least 7. The base Mantle is a 7, the AS is a 6, The other 3 are 7,7, 5. There are also 4 9's. The raw cards avg. EX-Mt with some NRMT.

Congrats & great job on the Yaz!

$200-$300 sounds about right.
