I agree with your view that the price appreciation potential of the E98 Cobb is limited, but I think that this card could still command $25,000+ for all. Consider the 1915 Cracker Jack card, which is reported to have a population of 10 for PSA 8, a pop of 2 at 8.5 and a pop 1 at 9. The PSA 8s are likely able to get $20-25,000 despite having 3 cards in higher grade.

Nice analysis and you absolutely could be right on the prices. We will know eventually. Maybe the Cobbs go for way more than first imagined. 50K each?, 35k each?, Who knows until they are sold. happy collecting
