If you ask most collectors, 1989 Score baseball cards typically go down as just another nearly-forgotten set of the “junk era.”

Their monetary value, like most cards of the late 1980s, has undoubtedly declined because of how widely-printed and distributed they were.

Let’s face it, these cards were everywhere.

But, there are still many great memories packed within its checklist…

An instantly recognizable design, multiple Hall of Fame rookie cards, and many superstars of the day can still put a smile on your face if you collected these as a kid.

And in this guide, I’ll run through the ten most valuable.

Let’s jump right in!

When I think of 1984 Topps baseball cards, two thoughts instantly come to mind:

the Don Mattingly rookie card and the team names in huge block letters that run down the sides of the cards.

There’s just so much to love about this set and in this guide, I’ll take a look at the ten most valuable.
