Sometimes there is very little that separates a card graded Mint 9 from those that grade high end Nm/Mt 8, and this beautiful card of Mickey Mantle is a perfect example. With striking, rich color, perfect focus and gloss that's practically dripping off of the card, this is very special to look at. The smooth surfaces and well printed reverse just take the cake! Microscopic touches at the tips of a couple of corners are all that keeps this gem from consideration as a Gem Mint card. A perfect photo!
