Market asking price, not a sale: $6,500, dated 2024. This is not a sale. It is what the market was asking, and no transaction is recorded behind it.
What is it, and why is it in the FLOAT 100?

This is an asking price, not a sale. It is what a seller wanted on the date shown, and asking prices sit above what buyers pay more often than not. Read it as a ceiling on the market's opinion at that moment, not as a value.
By reference price, 1909-11 T206 Walter Johnson (Portrait) is number 74 of 100 in the trading cards entries of the FLOAT 100. 79 of those 100 rest on a realized sale; the rest carry an asking price or a guide value, and each page says which. Rank within the FLOAT 100 itself (12 here) is editorial: how much an object defines its field, not price alone.
How this is made
- The figure
- One reference price, shown with its own kind. FLOAT does not average it with anything or adjust it for time.
- Realized or not
- A realized price is a completed sale. A market asking price and a price-guide value are not sales, and are labeled as such wherever they appear.
- Why no grade ladder
- Most FLOAT 100 entries are individual objects. There is one of this, so there is no population and no spread across grades to show.
