Donavon is correct. A Red Portrait Red Hindu Cobby will be in the next REA auction. It is the only known one, from my understanding. |

Ted, awesome card - congrats. Not to split hairs, but you state there are 14 cobb/cobb cards; Mastro and i believe REA both claim 12 is the known number. Are you sure about that 14? I think the recognized known number is actually 12. |

There were six known Ty Cobb backs when Rob Lifson made his famous find of five more in 1997. One additional copy was found a few years later (I believe in Kentucky, but could be wrong in my memory of the location), bringing the total to 12. When Nagy's example came to market, some people started counting it as the 13th, but I can't imagine it was not counted by Rob among the six known back in 1997. Obviously Nagy and his collection would have been well-known in the hobby. So if the Russell copy was also not one of the pre-1997 six known, then the total would be 13. |

The T206 museum list is pretty accurate in ranking the 46 cards in the 460-only Series. |

I know some of you will disagree, but I think there's something strange about comparing individual front/back combinations to the cobb/cobb back. |

I have never heard much of the Senator's collection. How is it that he seemingly stumbled upon all of the tough cards from T-206...Cobb/Cobb, Doyle Nat'l, etc. Doesn't it just seem odd, as such a comprehensive collection of rarities is relatively unparalleled from those collections that were put together 80-90 years ago? |

regarding market pricing: heck, the shiny new 1 of 1's are rarer than the cobb/cobb back, but that does not change the fact that one is a museum piece and the other is well, not a museum piece. |

So why if Frank Nagy's Cobb back was acquired many years ago did Rob not count it among known examples in 1997 when he reported the total (including the find of 5) at 11? |

Ted - I don't think that the type 1 Coupon has a population, graded and ungraded, anywhere near that of Cobb back. As in many multiples higher. |

Population, as in the number of cards, has everything to do with rarity which is this whole discussion. I agree with the posters above who say that there are probably many of these cards that we don't know about. I will add that there are probably Red Cobb Sovereign owners who aren't aware that they have this rarity. If I had one I wouldn't know the difference, whereas if I had a Cobb back I would know. |
