A 1-of-1 Cooper Flagg Rookie Debut Patch autographed card is set to be sold at auction rather than being transferred through an offered deal. Multiple outlets report that the card’s owner declines a “bounty” offer associated with the Dallas Mavericks, ending an effort to secure the rights to sell it.
The news follows a wider scramble around the card’s ownership and sale eligibility, with at least one party seeking to avoid auction while others push for a public sale. Yahoo Sports reports the card is expected to fetch several million dollars, citing comparisons to other high-end baseball trading card auctions, including the $1.1 million price paid last year for Paul Skenes’ Rookie Debut Patch Autograph (RDPA) card.
While the exact auction platform and final estimate are not consistently detailed across the brief reports, both sources agree the card’s disposition shifts to the auction route, reflecting how rare sports memorabilia and bidding dynamics drive competition for major “one-of-one” items.
