Default Caramel card scarcity

Posted By: fkw

Richard, its easy. It all based on how many cards are in the set.

When the cards were first obtained.....

Your chances (roughly) of getting a T206 Cobb red is 1 in 525
Your chances of getting a E95 Cobb is 1 in 25

Even though the odds are far less, the T206 Cobb red is far far more plentiful, all because there were obviously far more Cigarette packs sold than Caramel packs.

There are 21 times more (different) cards in the T206 set. Thats why you cant directly compare the numbers of a single player between a set of 525 and a set of 25.
