Okay, so I was cleaning out my old storage unit the other day, and guess what I stumbled upon? A dusty old box full of my childhood stuff. And inside, nestled between some old comic books and a deflated basketball, was my old trading card collection. I started flipping through, reminiscing, and then it hit me – I saw a 2013 Travis Kelce rookie card!
Now, back in 2013, Kelce wasn’t the superstar he is today. In fact, he had a rough start because of some injuries. I remember thinking, “This guy might be good someday,” but I had no idea just how good. I did a little digging and found out it’s a 2013 Topps, #31, and I also have the Chrome #118 version. These are from way back in his rookie season, before all the fame and glory.
So, I got curious and decided to see what these cards are worth now. I checked online, and man, was I surprised. There’s this one card, the 2013 Panini Prizm Prizms Gold #292 Travis Kelce, that’s going for around $4000.0! Can you believe that? Four grand for a piece of cardboard! I mean, I knew rookie cards could be valuable, but this is insane. My card’s not the gold one, but still, it got me thinking.
I did a bit more research – because, you know, once you start, you can’t stop – and found out there are like 7282 Travis Kelce cards out there. 415 of them are rookie cards, and the rest are all sorts of variations. It’s a whole world I never knew existed. It seems like everyone who thought about it, collected his cards that year.
Anyway, this whole thing got me wondering about the value of my own Kelce cards. I mean, are they worth anything? Are they going to help me retire early? Probably not, but it’s fun to think about. I even learned that rookie cards are generally a player’s most valuable cards. Who knew?
- First, I found my old trading card collection.
- Then, I discovered a 2013 Travis Kelce rookie card in it.
- Next, I researched the value of Travis Kelce rookie cards online.
- After that, I found out about the 2013 Panini Prizm Prizms Gold #292 card worth around $4000.0.
- Finally, I learned that there are 7282 Travis Kelce cards in total, with 415 being rookie cards.
This whole experience has been a wild ride down memory lane. It’s crazy to think about how much things can change in ten years. A rookie card that I probably got in a pack for a few bucks could be worth some serious cash now. It just goes to show, you never know what treasures you might find when you clean out your old stuff. I also spent much time to clear up my room.
So How about my card?
I am not sure about it. I will take it to a shop to see what they say. But even if it’s not worth much, it’s a cool reminder of how far Kelce has come. And who knows, maybe in another ten years, it’ll be worth even more. You never know, right?
