Cooper Flagg Rookie Auto Hits $366K — But Still Miles Behind Wembanyama

ByMarcus Holt March 8, 2026March 8, 2026

Cooper Flagg Chrome Sapphire auto — Cooper Flagg Topps Chrome Sapphire Edition auto – sold for $366,000

Cooper Flagg just set a new personal record: a Topps Chrome Sapphire Edition auto sold for $366,000 on Goldin Saturday.

It’s the highest price ever paid for a Flagg card. It’s also not even half of what Wembanyama’s top card went for.

The Gap

Flagg’s top 5 sales:

$366k – Chrome Sapphire auto (March 7, 2026)
$180k – Chrome Silver Pack Superfractor auto (Dec 19, 2025)
$168k – Now Draft Foilfractor dual auto w/ Knueppel (Feb 19, 2026)
$158.6k – Foilfractor PSA 9 (Jan 3, 2026)
$108k – First Card PSA 8 (Feb 19, 2026)

Victor Wembanyama Prizm Nebula PSA 9 – sold for $860,100

Wembanyama’s top 5:

$860k – Prizm Nebula (Feb 22, 2025)
$528k – National Treasures Logoman patch (Mar 20, 2025)
$516k – Revolution Kaboom! (Feb 19, 2026)
$516k – Prizm Black Shimmer (Apr 18, 2024)
$488k – Chrome Sapphire Superfractor (Mar 7, 2026)

Wembanyama’s fifth-highest sale ($488k) beats Flagg’s record by $122k.

What It Means

The market favors Wembanyama over Flagg — at least for now.
