To clear a few things up, the media keeps saying, "just think what it would have sold for if it would have been graded a 10!" In this case, it doesn't really matter. This is a 1 of 1 logo shield. Basically you only get this graded just to verify it's authenticity. Value really isn't effected (I mean unless it's like a super low grade like 1 to 3).
Also, yes, it is the new record for highest selling NFL card in history surpassing the Tom Brady Contenders Championship parallel of which there are 100 copies. So, a little perspective would tell you that if there were an equivalent 1 of 1 Brady rookie (there aren't any), it would most definitely surpass the Mahomes.
And lastly...the guy who originally pulled the card sold it for around $7000 shortly after pulling it in 2017/18. I'm sure as of right now, he's sitting in a dark room in the fetal position crying.

Imagine pulling that card....
It's damn majestic, shield is almost like like the star spangled banner.
