Hey folks, so I’ve been meaning to share this experience I had with a Mickey Mantle coin. It all started when I was looking for some cool sports memorabilia. You know, just browsing around, seeing what kind of neat stuff I could find to add to my collection.
So, I started poking around online, and I kept seeing these Mickey Mantle coins pop up. I’m a big baseball fan, and Mickey Mantle, well, he’s a legend! I mean, who doesn’t love the Mick? So, I got curious about these coins.
I started doing some digging. There’s a bunch of different ones out there. I saw some listings for vintage ones, some “ungraded” ones, and even a few that were listed as “limited edition” and numbered. It seemed like everyone wanted to sell me one of these things.
I checked out a few different places. I was looking everywhere, like that online auction place everyone uses. They’ve got everything on there, right? Some of those listings were pretty wild, with all sorts of claims about the coins. They had rookie year pictures and stuff like that. One of them even had a hologram. I was thinking, this is getting out of hand.
- Found some vintage ones, seemed pretty old.
- Saw a few that were “ungraded,” not sure what that even means.
- Looked at some limited edition ones, they had serial numbers and everything.
Then I stumbled upon this one listing for a bronze coin, limited to 5000. It had a serial number and everything. It looked pretty legit, and I decided to take the plunge and get it. I figured, why not? It’s Mickey Mantle!
When it finally arrived, I was pretty stoked. I carefully opened the package, and there it was, this shiny bronze Mickey Mantle coin. It felt pretty cool to hold a piece of history like that, even if it was just a coin.
Final thoughts
So, yeah, that’s my story about getting a Mickey Mantle coin. It was a fun little adventure, and now I’ve got a cool piece to add to my collection. I ended up with a limited edition bronze one, but there are tons of different kinds out there if you’re interested. Just be prepared to do some searching, because there are a lot of them out there, and you’ll need to compare prices to see what’s a reasonable price for you. Go get yourself one, and let me know what you think!
