Only one can sit upon the throne. For decades, the 1909-11 T206 Honus Wagner was the undisputed king of not just baseball cards, but all sports cards. It was the benchmark for the biggest sales. But over the last couple of years, some more modern rarities overtook it. But, the king is back following the $6.6 million sale of a T206 Honus Wagner in the early hours of Monday, August 16.
The sale came through Robert Edward Auctions. This particular Wagner carries a grade of Very Good 3 from SGC.
