This is a video from Antiques Roadshow of a wife having her husband’s complete set of 1993 Magic: The Gathering beta cards appraised, and being shocked at their value. I assume her husband probably had some idea of their worth, but according to her, “It’s just like they’re cards to me.” The appraisal? $65,000 – $100,000 at auction, with the power nine cards being approximately $50,000 – $75,000 of that value. Funnily, I’m pretty sure I actually owned an original beta Mox Emerald card (appraised at $8,000 – $12,000) back in the day. Unfortunately, a time traveler from the future came back and stole it from me. “No, he put it between the spokes of his bicycle to sound like a motorcyle.” Mom! “What?” You never should have let me do that.
