The One Ring trading card is now one of Post Malone’s most precious possessions.
The One Ring trading card is now one of Post Malone’s most precious possessions.
Last month, it was revealed an unidentified Toronto man found the ultra-rare “Magic: The Gathering” (MTG) card in one of the collector’s boxes he purchased at Face to Face Games.
The card was graded a Mint 9 by Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA), the second highest on the grading scale, which meant the collectible was in superb condition.
“There were fakes being released on the Internet, so no one would have believed it was real without authentication,” the anonymous card owner previously told CTV News Toronto in a statement. “When you see it and hold it, you can just feel its significance.”
Several companies worldwide offered million-dollar bounties for the card, with one Spanish-based store Gremio de Dragones offering as much as two million euros (roughly $2.9 million Canadian) for it.
On Tuesday, the elusive card bearer revealed himself on social media in a video with Post Malone.
“This is my dream come true, meeting @PostMalone and him buying the One Ring card from me is literally a moment straight out of a fairytale,” Brook Trafton said in a tweet.
