Better long term growth potential Staubach or Montana rookie?

I am looking at buying either a 1972 Staubach in PSA 8, centered 60/40 or better or a 1981 Montana PSA 9 centered close to 50/50. The Staubach is roughly $100 more. Which card do you think would have better long term growth potential?

Thanks for any and all input, Tom

    Glad to see someone else posting about future value comparisons.... It seems some posters don't like it but I sure do. I would think the Staubach would win out just because I would think there will always be less of them in comparison

    I'd think Staubach. Tougher set. He also has the added benefits of being a military member and Heisman winner (two subsets that people collect).

    My assumption would be

    Roger advantage = less supply

    Montana advantage = more demand

    Overall they are both pretty good ideas but I tend to side towards the earlier issue card in this case.

    I'd take a 1971 Terry Bradshaw rookie PSA 8 over both of them, '71's are much more condition sensitive than either 1972 or 1981.
