Default Topps American Treasures

I know this group has been dying lately, but I'm surprised no one's
mentioned these. Talk about high priced insert sets, this is by far the
pricest ever. All 1 of 1 auto's of the presidents. So far, only two
have been on eBay, Jefferson (who is probably going to be the 3rd
priciest) and currently Nixon at $16,300

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tegory=55 956

Who has the money to pay these insane prices for the auto's, I can see
Jefferson hitting nearly $30K but why Nixon? I mean, his auto has got
to be 1000 times easier to find than Jefferson's, and autograph
collectors wouldn't be looking for his auto as much as someone who's
been dead for almost 200 years.

So if you had to guess, what would you say for the other cards in the
set? Although, the prices will probably drop once a couple more start
hitting eBay I suppose since not as many of heavy payers will be wanting
to lay down the big bucks to get one card, any card, from the set.

Washington $70,000
Adams $25,000
Jefferson $27,800 (already sold)
Madison $25,000
Monroe $20,000
Q Adams $20,000

You'd think so, but Nixon is at $15,700 right now.

If they'll pay over 10,000 for Nixon what will they pay for the big boys like
Lincoln, or FDR, or JFK? You could buy a pack of cards and literally become an
instant millionaire if you pull one of those guys

I doubt if all the cuts together bring $1 million...maybe slightly more than
$1 million.

Huh? If the Jefferson sold for just under $28,000, how would any of
the others sell for a million? Think, man, think.


Consider the source.
