Several other rare and valuable cards will be on display, including Mickey Mantle, Nolan Ryan and Babe Ruth's rookie card.

The cards will be displayed in a special traveling cylinder designed to maintain the cards' near-mint condition.

The T-206 is graded as "very good-plus," and is valued at more than $100,000. Some experts speculate the 1909 card's worth may even exceed $200,000.
