this price of almost 3k may be a little ambitious

Looks like unless you have a super rare #83 card to sell, a 10 PSA is a must for a common.  Or a 9.5 beckett gem mint.  I have always said these cards will have their moment like the magic cards well into six figures.  The key is having held onto it when that moment comes.  The highest flyers will be the printing plates followed by other super limited rarities.  I am partial to the red mini and still believe three of them were tossed when the cards first came out

that would be a tragedy to have tossed those beautiful red ones.  like the guy in EU that tossed a harddrive full of bitcoin.  they should call the local dump to begin the search. 

We haven't seen a glow-in-the-dark in ages.  i feel these have special value as this was the last year they were printed. their jersey retired and hanging from the rafters.  there is no official count, but about 10 or so.  plus they look so cool. 

i'm so happy to see these cards bouncing back and we are still early in the game.  many folks just now discovering crypto.

The main point here is these cards are from a national brand company and most know Topps.  Those that have the funds will have no problem spending 6 or even 7 figures to own them.

Here are the 1/1s i know about:
    1) the PSA 10 Mini Ginter X listed on ebay now (100 made but only one gem mint)
    2) the true 1/1 full-size glossy listed on ebay now
    3) the still-unaccounted for 1/1 silver mini ginter x
    4) the jumbo/ 49 error card (only documented error card of this type)
    5) the 1/1 wood. (topps forgot to make these so will never be found? correct me if i'm wrong)
    6) the 1/1 blank back on first page of this thread
    7) the 1/1 gold poster on first page of this thread
    eight) the 1/1 mini glossy on first page of this thread
    9) Each of the 1/1 printing plates
   10) 1/1 Blank Back 3-Card Mini Strip: Featuring Cryptocurrency and two other subjects

how would you rank these? top 3 at least.  i'm thinking 3, 9, 2.  3 being first due to it being in a more exclusive pack.  9 being second as these are hard to get psa 10. could be off center in frame,.  the online exclusives like jumbos and blank backs being further down since they were never in the wild.

I started buying this week .. been buying lots of the base card ( to put away for all my children ) ..

have grabbed som minis both the basic one and some black border ..

its gonna be tough for me to get some of the other ones many ware way up there in price

I did find some boxes / packs for sale online but that's a real crapshoot

Personally I have found that it cost me less to purchase the card than to buy boxes and look for a specific card.  For the right buyer 225,000 is a bargain for the red  4/5  mini x.  There may never be another one come up for sale.

[blue_label]

same here , way cheaper buyi9ng and getting what you want rather than buying a box ,,

I just bought a psa10 gem mint silver glossy for 70.00

if I pulled that from a box id be ecstatic . and still have to get it minted ..

for me to buy the 2018 boxes would be an expensive scratch ticket to try and pull one out of my price range

Strange as it seems, we've never seen a BGS 10 black label 83 Cryptocurrency card. not of any flavor.  it is easiest to get one on topps bought cards. i got about 100 5x7s graded and got about 4 black labels - it can be done.  hint to anyone having an unopened 5x7 pack.

I have a lot of freshly pulled crypto cards I will post a picture when I get a chance, I would prefer selling all and not selling just one or two.

[dolphriends]

Willing to trade these for some unopened x packs or sell as a group.  Pulled these myself except the graded one
Sold

Thought I would update my values on a few of these #83 rarities from the Topps co.

My opinion is based on the rise in value of bitcoin and the broad awareness it is reaching. 
well, here goes.

The rainbow, all four printing plates I would put a million dollar price on it.

If the silver mini ever shows up I would give it a 500,000 value

The other red mini would also price out around 225,000 .  Of course if any of the three that might be found some day showed up, it could drive the value down a little.

The other 1/1 rarities, brooklyn backs and glowies are all quite desirable.  The black mini is quite a catch in the high psa grades especially the psa 10.

These prices are for the rare buyers who must have this collectable and has the funds for it. 

Happy collecting

Be well and stay safe.

Recent price levels are impressive.  Just like crypto, more and more people seem to be discovering them and the old price levels are being crushed.

This is how it gets noticed then mainstream jumps in and starts driving prices to an insane level. 
There always seems to be a super hot card that everyone starts chasing.  Keeping a close eye on this one.  Good luck to all.  I hope I pull the silver mini

I’m holding firm on my red mini at 225k.  It is for the person who wants the super ultra rare item and can afford it no problem.

With only 5 being made and interest in crypto on the rise, that is do-able.  Just takes one whale to show an interest.

New ATH. Once people are educated on the cost of grading one card is 50 bucks plus a year wait with no guarantee of a 10, they see that 200 bucks may be a reasonable price.
