The defining post-war baseball card. The finest known copy, graded SGC 9.5, sold for $12,600,000 at Heritage Auctions in August 2022, the record for any sports collectible card. Benchmark: Heritage Auctions, 2022-08, a documented public sale, not an estimate. Graded trading cards trade per-card on tokenized venues such as Courtyard (Polygon, Brink's vault) and Collector Crypt (Solana, PWCC/ALT vaults); this reference listing is for research.
The most expensive sports card ever sold.
Prism analyst note
The most expensive sports card ever sold. The benchmark is a real, dated auction record (Heritage Auctions); treat it as the card's documented high-water mark for that grade, not a live quote. Collectibles reprice at every sale.
