Found A $30,000 Card In His Collection

I chat with a gentleman recently who was trapped inside and home from work last week, due to the extreme weather and snow conditions.

He decided to go through his old sports cards and see what was in there. Well, it’s a good thing he did. He found a $30,000 or more Stephen Curry Rookie that is Super Rare and only numbered to /50.

How nice would it be to miss work and dig through old sports cards, I don’t even think I need to find a $30k card to say, Yes please! lol…. The find of a lifetime was only a bonus, and boy was it a good one.

The same card sold for $28,800 back in 2022 at Goldin Auctions.

This is exactly why I love buying collections of cards, you just never know what is lying in those boxes, binders or even old baskets from granny’s attic.

YouTube - Sports Card Investor this channel is great, more focused on the current hype in the game but still a great channel with top quality hobby info to stay current.

YouTube - Junk Wax Investor here you can learn about the valuable cards that lay in those junk wax stacks or boxes. This channel talks all about the good stuff from the junk wax times. Yes, junk wax still have some value….

YouTube - Chasing Cardboard if like the chase/hunt for sports cards then you will enjoy this show. Its one of my favorite shows, not only because I was going to create the same thing almost, but because its just fun. I was so close to doing this, but couldn’t miss my family. It’s like American Pickers but for sports cards.

eBay - CountryCards here is my eBay store, nothing to exciting but you will see either way, just in case you want to know what I have for sale or connect.

Auction Company - Gem-Mint Auctions Great cards, Great prices. Don’t want to miss out on this site/app. It’s always good to have options with collecting.

SGC Grading - This is my preferred company to Grade Cards as you will come to see in my images that I share. They might not pull the same premium as some others, but I sure do like them.

PSA Grading - As you know, this is another highly recommended way to Grade Cards. The PSA slab is slightly smaller and thinner than SGC, and with different colors.

This is only the beginning, much more to come every week. I may get a small commission from some of these links but you will pay the same.

Collections Leads For You

Here’s how this works. I run special advertising all over the USA, specifically looking for card collections. I get some basic collection info from sellers and a email in order to connect you. I try to filter the junk out as much as possible and to be completely transparent it’s possible I have interest in some of the stuff that comes up. Realistically though, I can’t buy them all and I usually like to buy stuff that is local anyways. I try to stay within a 6-8 hour radius of my location at most in Eastern Iowa. I get good leads everywhere!! NY-CA

These FREE Leads below have not been seen by anyone else, they are FRESH weekly and ready for you to explore.

Make sure to Look for my email every Thursday morning!

Until then, I hope you find some great cards. Keep Hunting!

Sincerely,

Country @ Card Hunter Weekly
