I see the same card (not limited) on ebay asking hundreds of dollars. Am I sitting on a winfall?

I don't know anything about the card but I would look at sold prices, not asking prices.

Agreed on looking at sold prices but I don't see any listed in the sold or even for sale when I search.

Why does Beckett call it "Leaf Limited Contenders"? It's a "Playoff Contenders" card that was inserted in Leaf Limited packs. That would be like labeling Bowman's Best cards inserted in Topps packs as "Topps Best" cards.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

I'm confused why you bought a Reid autograph from the year they didn't beat the Patriots (2004-05) after the season they beat the Patriots without Reid (2017-18)?

The Reid autograph on this 2004 card is before that season strated. A signature before an appearance at a Super Bowl game or a break through season is more valuable.

To answer your original question I would say no. Let me be clear that I don't get the kind of money people throw at new stuff so I could be an old fuddy duddy but I couldn't ever pay the $70 you did for an autographed card of a coach so in my mind (since there don't seem to be much for comps) I don't see a huge winfall in your future for that card.
Oh, and why do you feel a signature before a super bowl game or break through season is more valuable? I get the concept that a coach having success might drive some demand and increase value from prior to that but I don't see why there would be extra value because this card was printed before a super bowl appearance. I would think the market price would be driven by who it is and tied to market demand and I don't see that it being before a super bowl or after would impact the card value.
I know you are talking selling prices but I only saw one sold item which was a dual Reid/Vermeil which was best offer accepted so I don't think ebay can help anyone say what the current market value would be but again, I wouldn't expect a huge winfall.

Thanks for your input B Swagger, much appretiated. I have no intention of selling (unless someone make me an offer I can't refuse), it's the only trading card of any kind that I have.

Interesting that you are on this site and have a collection of one card. A collection isn't required but what brought you to this site?

For years thinking this was a rare card, being 3 of 15 limited edition, Seeking knowledge from this community on the significant of trading cards being co/15 or co/50 some are 1 of 100.
