Two pairs can be equally rare and sell for completely different prices.
If there’s no perfect comp, what matters most when you value one — rarity, model, history, condition, cultural significance, demand, or something else?
With cards and coins you can usually look for the same item.
With an original painting, there is no identical comp.
So if you had to value one today, what matters most?
Artist? Provenance? Historical importance? Quality? Previous sales? Something else?
1929 Juncosa Chocolate Mickey Mouse #12.
PSA Authentic Altered — Pop 1 in this designation.
Obviously Pop 1 ≠ automatically valuable.
But when the exact card/grade has essentially no direct market, how do you arrive at a number?
Do you work outward from other cards in the set? Mickey’s historical significance? Set scarcity? Condition? Comparable early Mickey issues? Previous sales?
What would you value this at today — and what evidence gets you there?
More interested in the reasoning than the number.
Not necessarily a specific card — could be scarcity, player significance, grading, eye appeal, set importance, autos, patches, etc. What does the market systematically overvalue or undervalue?
