Andy Pafko – The 1952 Topps
While Pafko isn’t a Hall of Famer, that doesn’t mean he’s not worth something. A grade-10 copy of Andy’s card went for roughly $250,000. It had no errors in it, so why was it a high price? The card was the first one for the 1952 set, making it famous to collectors.
Sherry Magee – The 1909 T206 (Error)
Though Sherry Magee was in the National League for RBI about four times, that can’t explain why his baseball card sold at auction for $660,000 back in 2018. The reason it was so popular is because of the mistake. Before fixing it in later issues, the name read Magie.
