Question here:

I am getting rid of the collection and am going to keep about 15 cards I like, all rookies of players I have seen play and I consider to be among the best, and at least my favorites.

Bobby has made the cut for me, from my modern players I want to keep.

I have a 2022 Archives #89 Red Parallel /75.

I am debating about moving it to get the 2022 Topps #660.

My issue is deciding which one.

660 is a batting image, which is a plus. It is Topps Flagship, which is a plus. It is “SP” which is a small plus.

Archives is /75, big plus. It is Archives, which is a negative, it is the 1963 design, which is unimpressive.

There are none of the Archive FS right now on eBay, and the last raw sold for $120.

The “SP” is routinely for sale, and does $60-100.

For long term (we are talking 20+ years) which Vobby would be better? I am almost leaning towards the #660, but just can’t decide.

Thoughts?
