The most valuable baseball card of all time! (For now, anyway...)

#2: Honus Wagner T206 SGC 2
$7.25M

You'll get deja vu when you scroll down, as T206 white border Honus Wagner from 1909-1911 has appeared multiple times on the top ten baseball card values.

In ANY condition, this is a fantastic find.

#3: Honus Wagner T206 SGC 3
$6.6M

Timing is everything. As you can see from the list, a lower-grade card sold for MORE.

As soon as another T206 Honus Wagner comes to market, the record for each grade will be broken again!

Half a grade below the 9.5 world record holder, and less than half the value. Nobody said collectibles are always logical!

Rumor has it there are two PSA 10s of this card in the world, so when one of those changes hands, the record may be broken again.

#5: Babe Ruth 1933 Goudey #53
$4.2M

Not the most valuable Babe Ruth card (that would be his rookie Sporting News card from 1916), but the high grade of this Goudey #53 card made it the most expensive Babe Ruth baseball card sold so far.
