Any Panthers card collectors out there? Mail Day!

Any idea the most valuable panther card?

Hard to say exactly because the card market fluctuates so much and ultimately a card is only worth what someone will pay for it or what someone has recently paid for it and there is a lot of sentimental value in cards for some folks. If I had to guess? Probably a Cam RPA (rookie patch autograph) that is numbered low (few produced) from a high end product like National Treasures. Some Steve Smith rookies are quite expensive these days as well.

Could be a 2011 Topps Chrome Cam Newton Superfractor. Essentially a 1/1 Cam rookie card from a great product. I personally haven’t seen it or seen it for sale but imagine that would be the priciest Cam/Panther card in existence. There’s the possibility that it is still in a sealed pack sitting in a sealed case somewhere… I have no idea if it has been pulled or not. 
 

UPDATE* looks like the pictured 1/1 rookie was pulled in 2011 so it’s in circulation and had been previously sold probably around $20K based on the article.

Old man rant! Back in my day there was just one set. You could either try and get em all via wax packs and boxes ... or just buy the factory set. Topps, Donruss, Fleer, Score, Bowman, etc. Now there is that (called the base set), 3-4 versions of said base set (limited), special cards, 3-4 versions of the special cards, autograph cards, 3-4 versions of the autograph card, chrome cards, tin cards, jersey cards, 1/1 cards, and more. It's insane and unless you're a millionaire, impossible to get the ENTIRE set of a given company for a given year.

 

How much did that 1/1 Burns set you back, Maine?

I hear that man - the hobby as a whole is insanely expensive right now. It peaked during Covid years but still very expensive to buy boxes from Panini directly and boxes are still tough to find sitting on shelves. 
 

I paid $250 for this Burns, not exactly a cheap steal but felt fair given the Auto, player, and that it’s a 1/1. I plan to enjoy it for a while… may grade it just to have in a protected slab and then I’ll see what happens with his contract to determine if I’ll let it go or not.

I think it’s fairly obvious part of the market is being used for money laundering

I still got around 20k NBA,NFL,MLB cards around. Big Shaq was my goto, got all his rookie cards except "magic all-star" one. Few others at one point were worth close to few bucks. Stopped when females became my new collectible, should have stuck with cards even with the piss-poor market. Got most in the 90s, hate that they are "worthless" now. I worked starting full/part (13 years old), dropping quarters and buying packs was like 90% of where my checks went.

I don’t get the current card market.  My kid is sort of into it.   But it just seems like a weird super bubble of nonsense.   
 

 

You just describe NFTs.

Brother collecting cards is much safer than million of deals currently in this clown world. 

Maybe get some tips and help him along via this thread. 

Im more numbers than words and that was one of my favorite thing about cards, they had a list of numbers.

They seem pretty similar IMO.  Everything is magically super valuable instantly.

My advice is dont let spend too of his $$$ on them, like I did. Plus during my era, there were some cool card shows to go to. Surprise him one day with a trip to one if they are still around.....view it as a hobby and they all cost something. 

Plus dont let him trade cards of big value. I was a 13 years old and neighborhood dad took it upon himself to load me up with older cards that didnt have good corners/ poor graded(right before my time). In the book they were listed at _____ but that was for a perfect mint card. I did have fun trading among friends.

    • https://www.profootballnetwork.com/latest-2024-nfl-draft-rumors-eagles-wr-buzz-michael-penix-jr-soaring-titans-caplan/ Cincinnati Bengals Multiple teams interested in veteran WR Tyler Boyd told PFN that the indication that they’ve received is that he plans to make his decision on where he plans to sign for the 2024 season after the draft. The feeling is, as a source with one of the teams said, is that he wants to see what teams do in the draft before going forward. Boyd, who is clearly the top slot receiver available on the open market, was looking for at least $9 million per year at one point earlier this offseason, another source said. The veteran pass catcher signed a four-year extension in July 2019 worth $43 million ($10.75 million per season), which expired in March. Houston Texans The Houston Texans looked into the potential of acquiring veteran WR Stefon Diggs, which went down on April 3, well before then, a league source with knowledge of the situation told us. The source indicated that the team was looking into his background and potential fit with them at least three to four weeks before the trade with the Buffalo Bills was completed. That would indicate that it wasn’t just the Bills who were looking to move him. As the source explained, the Texans felt that they wanted to build on last year’s surprising success to make another run in the playoffs.   Philadelphia Eagles There’s been surprising buzz around the Philadelphia Eagles and the wide receiver position.
As a coaching source who has worked with new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore in the past told us this week, his base offense, when he has enough players at the position, is 11 personnel (1 RB, 1 TE, 3 WR). Behind the two starters at wide receiver (A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith) are two veterans on one-year deals (DeVante Parker and Parris Campbell) who have had their share of injuries over the years. Tennessee Titans Multiple league sources strongly believe LT Joe Alt, if he falls to them at No. 7 overall, will be the selection at that spot. The feeling here is that by selecting Alt, who our sources say is the “safest” left tackle for the 2024 NFL Draft, would help solidify the left side of the Titans’ offensive line with Peter Skoronski entrenched at LG. If Tennessee is able to secure Alt, that would enable the coaches to move third-year OT Nicholas Petit-Frere to RT to compete for the starting job there. Defensively, a source with knowledge of the scheme says Tennessee’s expected to run a 3-4 front with new defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson. However, his scheme has some differences from former head coach Mike Vrabel’s version of the 3-4, which has its roots from the New England Patriots. Washington Commanders With a whopping six picks available within the top 100 selections (one first, two seconds, three thirds), some teams have told us they expect the Commanders to explore the possibility of packaging some draft assets to trade up for a higher-graded player to address needs on both sides of the ball (OL, DE, CB).   Latest Buzz on Top NFL Draft Prospects Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington There’s been a lot of talk in the scouting world lately that, despite his injury history, Michael Penix Jr. will wind up being a first-round pick. Penix, known in coaching and scouting circles as possessing the best deep arm of all the QBs projected to go off the board within the first few rounds, has shown the ability to process information well based on the game tape from the past few seasons. Some teams feel that there will be at least a few teams looking to replace their veteran signal-callers over the next few seasons and will look into either trading up from Round 2 or trading down in the first in order to select him later where he would be seen as a better value. Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas There has seemed to be a lot of buzz surrounding Adonai Mitchell in recent weeks, and as one scouting source said, it’s because of his size, speed, and talent. While he’s seen as a “late bloomer” and didn’t have huge numbers in college, Mitchell is still projected to go off the board late first/early second round due to upside and how he projects to be a starter at some point within the first few seasons at the next level.   Jalyx Hunt, EDGE, Houston Christian If you’re looking for a player who could go off the board much higher than first thought, it could be this guy. Jalyx Hunt started his collegiate football career off at Cornell as a safety but would eventually transition to edge rusher at Houston Christian due in part to a late growth spurt.
    • the Carolina Panthers will trade their 2025 1st for a 2nd round pick this year in your name Mr Scot
