1984 Topps #123 Dan Marino

PSA 9 eBay Buy It Now: $250

Hall of Fame Induction Year: 2005

Marino played 17 seasons for the Miami Dolphins.  During his sterling career, he won the 1984 NFL MVP, was a 9-time Pro-Bowl selection, and the NFL’s Rookie of the Year in 1983.  He was the first passer in league history to throw for 60,000 yards and to eclipse the 400-touchdown mark.  Most consider Marino to be one of the ten best quarterbacks in NFL history.  The cost of his rookie is lower than one might expect because he never won a Super Bowl, and as a 1984 edition, it lies at the edge of the junk wax era.  Even considering these factors, a Marino 1984 Topps in PSA 9 at less than $300 is a steal.
