Did you ever collect any type of cards when you were younger?  Whether they were Pokemon cards, baseball cards, basketball cards, football cards or any other types of cards, your mom would always tell that they're trash and they're a waste of money but what if you had one that was from somewhere between 1909 and 1911.  Would your mom think that was trash?  Because if she did, she would be the most wrong she's ever been.

Just recently a T206 Honus Wagner baseball card was sold for 1.32 million dollars.  The reason that this card is worth so much money is for a couple of reasons.  First off, it's just so old.  It cam from somewhere between the years of 1909 and 1911.  Next, there were less than 200 cards of the Hall of Fame Shortsop produced mainly because Honus Wagner himself didn`t want the cards sold.  One last reason that the card is worth so much is that Honus Wagner is one of the best baseball players in the history of the game.  The only thing that could have made this card anymore valuable than it already was is if it was signed by the legend himself. Every collecter in the world wants to get their hands on this card, but of course your mom just probably thinks it would be trash.
