Albert Pujols – 2001 Bowman Autographed
Baseball cards had become so ubiquitous by the early ‘00s that none was really considered rare unless they came with a gimmick. We are talking about memorabilia cards, autographs, and low-numbered parallel ones. Among the most valuable of these would be the Albert Pujols autograph card in the 2001 Bowman set. If you have this in good condition, you can get an amount in the four figures for it.

Cal Ripken Jr. – 1982 Topps Traded
There are a number of valuable 1982 rookie cards. However, the most valuable one would be the Cal Ripken Jr. card in the Topps Traded expansion set. The Iron Man’s card can fetch you about $200 if it is in good condition. Just be careful since the back can chip and flake. This is the reason there is such a big range of grades and prices for it.
