In the world of sports memorabilia, few items stir as much excitement as rare baseball cards, and the PWCC December Premier Auction is no exception. This prestigious event showcases some of the most coveted cards from the T206 set, known as the Big Four, attracting collectors worldwide.
One standout item in this auction is an SGC 1 graded T206 Eddie Plank card. Only 39 cards have received a grade from SGC, with an additional 21 graded by PSA. Despite showing signs of age and wear, including paper loss, creasing, and corner and edge damage, the rarity and value of the Plank card remain undisputed. Its appearance at auction is a noteworthy event, marking the fourth time this year a Plank card has been available for purchase. Previous sales include an SGC 1 Plank card fetching $75,000 last February and a PSA 2.5 variant commanding $168,000 in August.
Another highly sought-after card in the auction is the PSA 2 graded Sherry “Magie” error card from the T206 set. This particular card features a misspelling of Sherry Magee’s last name, making it a rare and prestigious item in the collection. It joins the ranks of the T206 Honus Wagner and “NY Nat’l” Joe Doyle cards as one of the most renowned rarities.
While the T206 cards dominate the spotlight, the auction also boasts an impressive array of Michael Jordan cards, showcasing the enduring legacy and popularity of the basketball legend. Collectors can find several highlights from the Jordan collection, such as the 1998 Skybox Premium Star Rookies (#/50) graded PSA 8, the 1997 Skybox E-X 2001 Essential Credentials Future (#/72) graded PSA 9, and the 1997 Metal Universe Championship Precious Metals (#/50) graded BGS 9. Additionally, the auction features the 1984-85 Star Company XRC in both PSA 8 and BGS 9 grades.
