Comparison
You asked about the rarity of the Coupons compared to the T206's. I did a quick check of the SGC website.
There are 8 Type 1 Coupon Cobbs that have been graded, with only 1 that is VG or better.
Type 2 has 76 Cobbs, with only 9 that are VG or better.
Only 1 Type 3 is graded, which is a "1".
Total of 85 Coupons
I looked only at T206 Piedmonts, and SGC has 372 of the Piedmont Cobb's, with 136 that are VG or better.
So, looking at my very limited and quick research, keeping in mind that I only looked at Piedmont T206's, the Piedmont Cobbs are over 4 times as plentiful as the Coupon Cobb's, and the Coupons are generally in much poorer condition than the Piedmont's. So, I would guess that if you add Sweet Cap backs, Polar Bear backs, etc, the total T206 Cobb backs could be 10-15 times as plentiful as the Coupon Cobbs.
I am too busy (lazy) to delve into all of the T206 back comparisons at this time.
Good luck! Rick
