Comment: This has also been pointed out in previous threads, but Burdick also listed T213 as being issued in 1914-1915. Had he known the T213-1s were issued in 1910 he may have done things differently.

Hey Bryan,
The Type 1 Coupons are much like the pattern of Red Sun's, but even more rare. They are all extremely difficult, and depending what 20 year period you start collecting them, you will get a different pattern of rare for the cards you do and don't acquire. I collected them hard for 15 years and little pattern emerged because they just hardly ever came up for sale. The Pop reports are a nice guide and do give indication of some that have about half the known examples of others, but there are as much raw as graded out there so who knows... I think the Red Sun's exists in that 6-15 range of each card raw and graded per player and believe the Type 1's are in that 3-9 range with perhaps a few players having a few more examples over that range estimate. This is my own semi-scientific idea based off tracking raw card sales and graded pop reports.
Rob, may be able to add some more color to the conversation....
Great Starr btw - Rob! Congrats on the Hickman pickup. The whole collecting Coupon world will keep an eye out for your Rhoades. You are almost there and will be the 2nd person known to complete the 68 card mini-monster!
Cheers -
