E107 Breiach-Williams question

How rare is a E107 Breiach-Williams ?
I am looking to trade this card to a gentleman who collects Highlander cards. My card is in poor condition but to be honest I love it and feel lucky to own it. I have no problems trading it because it would go to someone who has the same passion as me for the older cards and get a good home. I'm not going to post what I'm getting for this card because that is not the intention of this post.
I would be interested in the forum members opinion on my card, is a rare card, do you see them offered a lot in any condition.....your thoughts please ????

They're very hard to come by. If you're looking for just any example, you'll see them pop up from time to time; if you're looking for a specific team or player - it could be years, as the populations on any given card are single digits.

A large collection of these was sold individually over the past couple of years, so the market did see a (relatively) large number of these for sale recently, but once those get absorbed into collections, don't expect to see many E103's available on a regular basis.

Bottom line - if you're happy with what you're getting for it, then great. But if you're planning to replace it, then hang onto it - it could be very tough to find another!

E107s are extremely hard to come by. Without getting into specifics, I'd expect commons in that condition to sell for anywhere between $600 to $1,200 depending on the team, player, etc.

Nice card by the way. I only see two examples of Jimmy Williams graded in the SGC population reports, which is pretty low on the spectrum for this issue. For most commons, there are 3 to 7 examples graded. Thanks for sharing.

E107 Williams

E107 cards are tough to come by. The Williams happens to be the only one I own, and is obviously not also on TPG reports. I also feel lucky to own it, but this one is not available. it has a certain 'tombstone' appeal that I have always appreciated. Good luck with the trade.

e107s are tough cards already but Williams is a very elusive common in particular out of the set. Like Derek was saying, this one's lower than the average e107 when it comes to the pop reports...

I was in a similar situation recently
 
A board member reached out to me out of the blue asking if I'd be willing to trade (or sell) my e107 type. It was not as rare as yours though, so I agreed to what I thought was a generous trade on his part that included a replacement e107 type as well and I moved on. Good luck.

Particular Player
 
My advice would be if you like it, hold onto it. I agree with the advice given so far by other members. Getting a type card ok, but when it comes to a particular E107 card it can be extremely difficult. I waited eight and a half years for a particular E107 example. My advice hold onto it and enjoy it!
