Posted By: <b>martindl</b><p><br />I'm fortunate to own the four T227 baseball players - Cobb, Marquard, Baker and Bender. Cobb has a Miner's Extra back and the other three are Honest Long Cut.<br /><br />Everything I've read about these cards says that the Miner's Extra back is more difficult. <br /><br />Regarding Cobb specifically, over the past two years I've seen probably six of these cards at auction. If I remember correctly, four were Miner's Extra and two were HLC. Some may have been the same card come up multiple times as I don't track holder numbers.<br /><br />What are y'alls thoughts on the relative difficulty of these backs and is the Cobb indeed more difficult with Miner's Extra?<br /><br />
