1952 Topps Baseball Card #311 Mickey Mantle

One of the most valuable baseball cards on the planet, the Topps Mickey Mantle rookie card is the key to the 1952 Topps set and without question the most popular and valuable postwar baseball card today. The world record price (at the time) for any baseball card was set by the finest condition copy known to exist. It sold for $12.6 million yes MILLIONS dollars. The reason: the immaculate perfect condition. How much is a beat up, torn, ragged example worth? They can be bought on eBay for a few thousand dollars.

The Holy Grail

While Mantle's true rookie card was the 1951 Bowman No. 253, this Topps 311 is Mantle's first Topps card. This combination of the legendary Yankee on Topps' first true set has made it the most valuable Mickey Mantle baseball card and a close second to the T206 Honus Wagner in the "Holy Grail" debate.

High grade examples of Mantle's card can easily fetch well into six and even seven figures. A PSA 9 (Mint) 1952 Topps Mantle has sold for $282,587. A year later, a PSA 8 Mantle sold for $112,800. In the spring of 2013, Robert Edward Auctions sold a PSA 8.5 (NM/MT+) specimen for $272,550.

More recently, in August 2023, a SGA 9.5 example sold for a staggering $12.6 million at auction.
