    MIKE TROUT Signed Rookie Card ... FETCHES $186,000 AT AUCTION!!!

    MIKE TROUT Signed Rookie Card ...FETCHES $186,000 AT AUCTION!!!


    CLUSIVE DETAILS
    Mike Trout has officially reached legendary status ... 'cause after just 8 seasons in the MLB -- his rookie card just sold for an INSANE $186,000!!!


    Okay ... it ain't just your average rookie card -- it's signed AND numbered to only 25 ... but that price puts the Trout RC in ultra-rare air.


    Consider this ... a Michael Jordan autographed JERSEY card only sold for $95,000 last year -- while a WILT CHAMBERLAIN rookie card fetched just $60,000.


    And, if you really want perspective on how insane that price is for Trout's card ... a similar Tom Brady autographed RC famously just sold for $400,000 -- AND HE'S THE G.O.A.T.!!!




    So, what makes this card so special? Well, Trout has been absurd through 8 MLB seasons so far ... batting .307 with 240 home runs and 189 steals.



    But, the card is graded out at a 9.5 (out of 10) with a perfect 10 surface and perfect 10 corners ... according to Goldin Auctions.


    The craziest part of the auction? We're told the same Trout card sold for just $50,000 a little over a year ago ... and just $13,000 back in April 2016!!!


    Good news for everyone ... there are 24 more of these Trout cards still out in existence -- which means it's time to get Mom to search through that childhood collection one more time!!!

    People have too much $$$. Obviously some billionaire.

    I get some art investment. Faberge` eggs. OK. Monet painting. Sure.

    But some of this sports memorabilia defies any logic.

    Nice card, sounds a bit overpriced - but the market is the market.

    Card says he's 6'1''

    Angels media says he's 6'2''

    2019 listed as 6'3''

    Guy keeps on growing mysteriously

    That's nuts. You can grab a mid grade Mickey Mantle rookie for around 10k. Check out this Jordan that sold for 350k a couple weeks ago : https://www.ebay.com/itm/1997-Metal-...p2047675.l2557:




    Then you have this...a fukkin Magic the Gathering card that sold for 166k: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-Magic-The-Gathering-MTG-Alpha-Black-Lotus-R-A-BGS-9-5-GEM-MINT-PWCC-/143136537077?hash=item21539a39f5%3Ag%3Ay 98AAOSw2RJcacUC&nma=true&si=596sV4PWqNZEWcUWOhgEAvCIZ6A%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
