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 highly anticipated event showcases two of the most coveted cards from the T206 set, famously known as the Big Four, capturing the attention of collectors worldwide.
One of the standout items in this auction is an SGC 1 graded T206 Eddie Plank card, considered to be one of the hardest to find. Only 39 of these cards have received a grade from SGC, with an additional 21 graded by PSA. Despite its signs of age and wear, including paper loss, creasing, and damage to corners and edges, the value and rarity of the Plank card remain undisputed. Its appearance at auction is a momentous occasion, as it marks the fourth time this year that a Plank card has been made available for purchase. Previous sales have seen an SGC 1 Plank card sell for $75,000 in February and a PSA 2.5 variant command a staggering $168,000 in August.
Accompanying the Plank card is the equally prestigious PSA 2 graded Sherry “Magie” error card. This particular card is part of the T206 set and features a misspelling of Sherry Magee’s last name. It shares the same level of notoriety as the highly sought-after T206 Honus Wagner and “NY Nat’l” Joe Doyle cards, making it a true gem for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
In addition to these historic items, the PWCC December Premier Auction also boasts an impressive array of Michael Jordan cards, showcasing the enduring legacy and popularity of the basketball legend. Some of the highlights from the Jordan collection include the rare 1997 Metal Universe Championship Precious Metals card (numbered out of 50) graded BGS 9, the 1998 Skybox Premium Star Rookies card (numbered out of 50) graded PSA 8, the 1997 Skybox E-X 2001 Essential Credentials Future card (numbered out of 72) graded PSA 9, and the 1984-85 Star Company XRC in both PSA 8 and BGS 9 grades.
The auction doesn’t stop at baseball and basketball memorabilia. It also features modern marvels from the world of hockey, such as the 2015-16 Upper Deck The Cup Gold Foil Connor McDavid RPA (numbered out of 12) and the 2005 Upper Deck The Cup Sidney Crosby RPA (numbered out of 99), both of which are graded BGS 8.
