1961 Topps Mickey Mantle AS
I got a 61 Mantle AS card from the 2011 Topps Diamond giveaway in the mail recently and really wanted to know what's the best thing to do with it. I'm a Yanks fan but I have no intention of keeping it. Should I sell it as it is? Should I get it graded. I don't have any graded cards and never had any graded. I was away from the hobby for over a decade and just got back into less than a year ago. Could someone even give me an idea of what it would grade for, if I shared a scan?
Im collecting cards for these sets:
2011 Gypsy Queen
2011 Topps Baseball Series 1
2011 Topps Baseball Update
2012 Topps Baseball
2011 Topps Football
2011 Score Football
2011 Prestige Football
2011 Rising Rookies Football
2001 Upper Deck Vintage Football

If it came from Topps and is mint get it graded, it will fetch a premium if it grades out decent.

Yep post a scan. May or may not be worth grading.

Yeah, what they said. And if possible, give us a high res scan of the front AND the back. I recently got a bad grade because of an off-center back.
