1964 Topps Coins #23 Elston Howard VG New York Yankees. In 1955, he broke the color barrier and became the Yankees first Black player. This metal coin has a few spots of discoloring on the back, but is still in decent shape for being 62 years old. SEE PICTURES. The coin pictured is the coin you'll receive. Very Low Starting Bid. I do combine shipping at $1.00 per each additional item won. Shipping is maxed at $10.00.
