I guess it depends on what you collect and are interested in. Does the Rosen find of lots of 1952 Topps cards--cards that are mainstream postwar--really compare with the E98 find or the OJ finds other than on a dollar value basis? I'd probably classify the Rosen find as more significant simply because I don't collect the other two issues. And if you don't collect any of those issues, perhaps the biggest find was something else. For example, as a West Coast collector, Leon's "Trucker Boy" find was more significant to me than the OJ or E98 find due to the tough PCL regionals that I would love to own.
