A 1952 Mickey Mantle baseball card sold for a record $12.6 million at auction. This sale marked the first sports item to achieve eight figures at auction. The card's exceptional condition, graded Mint+ 9.5, contributed significantly to its value. Previously purchased for $50,000 in 1991, its worth increased dramatically over time.
