Pete Rose/Pedro Gonzalez/Ken McMullen/Al Weis – 1963 Topps
The reason this 4-player rookie card amounted to $70,000 was that it included Pete Rose, the hits record holder. In 2016, a graded 10 copy of the card was priced for $717,700. It’s rare to find a perfect card, especially when it’s become old.
Albert Pujols – 2001 Bowman Autographed
In the early 2000s, Baseball cards had become so common and ubiquitous that none were really considered rare unless they came as a bonus: like being memorabilia cards, having autographs on them, and low-numbered parallel ones. One of the most valuable ones were the Albert Pujols autograph card in the 2001 Bowman set. A card in good condition can earn a price within four figures.
