But as investments, they should continue to hold their value. T206 remains the most popular set, and I see no reason for that to change.

As an example of the front mattering: I bought a Howell/ Lenox PSA 3 in 2004. If I sold it today I would get roughly double what I paid. I also bought a red Cobb/ Lenox PSA 2 in 2009. Today I could sell it for about five times what I paid for it. It's gone up more because it's a Cobb.

I can't tell you which cards will be hot next, but the rarest backs do seem to only go up.
When you say Rare Backs which ones are you referring to?

Anything Not Piedmont / Sweet Caporal or just Super Rare like Uzit.

Are Sovereign Going Up or is that too Common?
