Default % of Graded Vintage Cards

Posted By: T206Collector

Uh, T205's were only produced in 1911. T206's were produced for three years from 1909-11. Based on those cold hard facts alone, you would expect three T206 cards to every 1 T205 card -- and that was by the end of 1911 alone.

Given T206 have always been more popular, it would not be surprising to see those numbers fall to 4:1, as the PSA pop report suggests.

I think relying on pop reports when the different is 1 card graded versus 4 cards graded is silly. But when the numbers are 80,000 to 20,000 you can certainly learn quite a bit about relative scarcity.
