Was never quite sure about that. Old SCD catalogs I have show conflicting info. A 2011 catalog has the one line version valued at $18,000 NM, and the two line version valued at $7,800 NM. Fast forward to the 2015 SCD catalog and they now show a NM one line version valued at $3,000, and the two line version valued at $8,000 in NM condition. I know to not rely upon such for current values but, always found the SCD catalogs as a fairly reliable source for showing the relative values between cards in a particular set. Based on that published difference between those years, I wondered if possibly there had been a change in the status and scarcity of the one line version that was found during the ensuing years between those two catalogs. I haven't really looked at any Beckett or other published valuation listings in well over a decade, so don't know if this is possibly some printing error on the part of the 2015 catalog SCD then?

If it is an error, I did not otherwise know. And if that is in fact the case that the one line version is still the rarer and more valuable, perhaps the T205 set should not have a Big 4, or a Big 5, but maybe a Big 6 group of toughest cards and include both the one and two line versions of the Wallace - No Cap card in that group. They are both pretty darn hard to find IMO.
