Mickey Mantle – 1951 Bowman
This is the second mention of the Mickey Mantle card, but this time, it’s the 1951 Bowman version, which is not as expensive or famous as his Topps card. This variant is the only official rookie card of Mantle. A mint copy of the card can amount to more than $500,000 because of his popularity among the baby boomers and the younger generation..

Eddie Plank – 1909 T209
Hall of Famer Eddie Plank, the pitcher behind Honus Wagner himself, is considered the second rarest and most valuable card in the deck due to several reasons. OldSportsCards.com said, “The most prevalent theory is that the card suffered from a poor printing plate, resulting in many of the cards being destroyed since they could not pass quality control. Besides, many of the known examples are found with poor centering from top to bottom. The centering can be so severe that it will cut into the text along the bottom.
