Most valueable card
« on: January 23, 2009, 08:29:41 AM »
Hi guys,

what do you think - what is the most valueable single card - from all sets - perhaps ex- or including this one Aragorn Promo card?

Let us know your opinions!  :popcorn:
Mithrandir I am known to the Elves, Tharkun to the dwarves; Olorin was the name in my youth in the West which is forgotten, in the South Incanus, in the North Gandalf; into the East I will not go."

The (arguably) most valuable card The One Ring, Answer to All Riddles when it was accidentally printed in foil.

Don't some foreign promos/releases go for insane amounts? Not sure if they became easier to get later, though.

Looked up the "Most Wanted" list on Mahasamatman. These might not directly translate to "most valuable," but for what it's worth:

30 Arwen, Maiden of Rivendell
26 Frodo, Mr Underhill
25 Éomer, Forthwith Banished
25 Gandalf, Stormcrow
25 Bilbo, Aged Ring-Bearer (foil)
24 Gimli, Dwarven Delegate
23 Boromir, Steward's Heir
21 Gimli, Eager Hunter (foil)
19 Theodred, Second Marshal Of The Mark (foil)
19 The One Ring, The Ring of Doom
19 Relentless Warg
19 Gil-galad, High King of the Noldor
19 Beorning Axe
18 Saruman, Servant of Sauron
18 Ordnance Grunt (foil)
18 Isengard Marauder (foil)
18 Faramir, Prince of Ithilien (foil)
18 Faramir, Bearer of Quality
18 Aragorn's Bow, Ranger's Longbow
17 Úlairë Otsëa, Duplicitous Specter (AI) (foil)
17 You Do Not Know Fear
17 Watcher at Sarn Ford, Ranger of the North (promo) (foil)
17 Uglúk, Ugly Fellow
17 The One Ring, Answer to All Riddles (foil)
17 Saruman, Agent of the Dark Lord (foil)

*LOL*... that's a promo foil, isn't it? And not, like, some regular foil.

Man, I thought Relentless Warg would be one of the easiest cards to get back when I was thinking about building a Troll swarm deck. And then I saw the prices.

I put my spare Relentless Warg up for trade and had about 9 emails in a few days.

Foil versions of Noble Leaders and AtAR fetch hefty prices. And any Masterworks stuff is big money too. I sold an Aragorn DoR MW about two years ago for $22 USD. Can't imagine what it would be worth now.

[shameless pitch]I have 4 for sale if youre interested, and no im not joking :D[/shameless pitch]

If you dont count promos i reckon the aforementioned Warg, Saruman the follower, Bill Ferny or Giant among the Swertings possibly.

Cheers

For Rizzle? I have one that I don't really need...lol.
anyway I remember litbro, BTO and myself bought 8 hunters boosters.  BtO got a RF gorbag,  I got Rangers longbow, and litbro got Thorongil.  Needless to say we got a ton of stuff, litbro has 2 decks, both ok that were basically made from that trade.

What about the common one ring in foil?

I know Olorin said it but 0P127 is the single most expensive card hands down, due to it being one of a kind.

I doubt anyone knows the answer to this question but...

Speaking of the Aragorn 0P127 unique foil...

If there was one printed that leaked...could there not be a box of 500 of them laying around somewhere waiting to be found (or knowingly stored up that will begin surfacing on e-bay one by one like the Bilbo, Aged Ring Bearer foils that used to be impossible to find?

Anyone have any clues or guesses?
