Ryan, I agree with that list.

I also agree that Uzit has some room to to gain on Drum. I've always found Uzits extremely tough to acquire.

PSA has graded 143 Uzits and 132 Drums. I don't understand why a Drum is 2.5 to 3 times the price of an Uzit.

More demand for Drum. They're considered the gold standard of rare backs.

This has been discussed before, but I can't find the thread. Uzits are more plentiful, but feature fewer subjects, so there are more Uzits for each subject. For example, I've come across at least 6 different Merkle/ Uzits.

Drums, however, are featured on more subjects, so many of the Drums are one of one or one of two for many subjects. I think that that level of scarceness for many front/ back combo with the Drums raises the price relative to the Uzits.

I agree.

What about Uzits that have pops of 1, 2 or 3? I can understand if there are 9 Merkles why it might sell for less, but it doesn't make sense that the higher pops would bring down the price on the low pop Uzits.
