T205 backs
T205 back scarcity, as posted by our resident T205 expert Joshua a few years back:
Drum
Hindu
Broadleaf black
Piedmont Fact. 42
American Beauty black
American Beauty green
Cycle
Hassan Fact. 30
Sovereign
Honest Long Cut
Hassan Fact. 649
Sweet Cap. black fact. 42
Sweet Cap. black fact. 25
Sweet Cap. red
Polar Bear
Piedmont fact. 25
Drum is nearly impossible and several times harder than its counterpart in the t206s.
There are premiums paid for certain backs although anything Honest Long Cut and below are pretty common. Even Sovereign, Hassan 30, and Cycle only bring a small premium.
Over the years different backs have gone up and down in the populations and scarcity when new finds hit the market. A few years ago, Cycle and Sovereign seemed scarcer (and Piedmont fact. 42 was nearly unknown) but a few large finds pushed them to become more common (esp. Sovereign).
Hope this helps.
