“Uncover the Hidden Treasure: 18 Iconic 90s Collectibles Whose Values Have Exploded!”
5. Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards
Some of the earliest sets of Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards like those from the “Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon” sets released in the late 90s are particularly valuable because they’re hard to find and are trading today at $400,000. But this price is nothing compared to the “Black Luster Soldier,” printed on stainless steel and valued at an extraordinarily high price of $10,000,000.
6. A 1992 Close AM Penny
Did you imagine that a penny you’re holding as a kid could be worth over $20,000? In 1992, a rare error occurred at the US Mint. The reverse design of the penny featured an ‘AM’ that was too close together. This mistake only happened for a few months before it was corrected, making these coins highly sought after by collectors. In fact, one sold for $25,000 in early 2017.
7. Pokemon cards
Pokemon cards were incredibly famous among kids back in the 90s. To revive their childhood, many collectors are searching for these cards and are willing to pay extremely high prices, especially for those who feature fan-favorite Pokemon like Charizard or Pikachu. According to a CNN report, in a bid to catch all the Pokémon, someone just paid $420,000 at auction for a Charizard card.
8. Baseball Cards
Baseball cards can look like just a piece of paper for some, but the collectors are going gaga over them. If you have any of these cards in storage, it’s time to pull them out and earn thousands of dollars. The most expensive 1990 George Bush baseball card is worth around $8000.
