Here is an article I just saw that articulates what I was saying in post 56 better than I did.

 

So if the baseball card is REALLY nice and rare itll cost a whole two pennys instead of one?

 

I think the better "trick" is to just buy raw coins that would grade MS 65-68 and get them for close to melt value lol.

 

A Honus Wagner can cost you more than 99.99% of all coins in existence. Don't think ALL baseball cards are valueless, just those made as "collectibles".
