Default T206 Reference....Reflections.....And then, there are times to down-grade your T206's

Hey guys, anyone here interested in smoking a 108 year old American Beauty cigarette
.
................. Some of the really difficult to find AB 460 cards in this sub-set .................



I acquired this AB 460 Cobb early in the game of starting an AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 run.
I was tempted to crack it out and resubmit it to PSA, hoping for a Vg-Ex grade.

When I purchased this Cobb, it's pop report (PSA + SGC) data indicated only 4 examples.
I received a number of calls and emails asking me if I would sell it. I said absolutely not.






Some years later, this AB 460 Cobb (ungraded) was available. I purchased it with the thought in mind
to sell the 1st Cobb (which appeared to me to be a higher grade). So, I sold the 1st Cobb to a friend.


.




And guess what ?
Contrary to my thinking, the 2nd Cobb graded the same as the 1st Cobb. Absolutely amazing !






I'm curious, how many of you consider down-grading some of your T206's ?
