I would guess risk/reward and intelligence of the counterfeiter. Making high end stuff is stupid for the most part. Say someone makes a high end T206 Red Cobb and it sells for $100K. Chances of that guy having money and being able to make your life horrible is pretty high if you get caught. Now if you make 1000s of $5 to $500 cards and get caught selling one how much problems can someone out very little money cause? At least that is what I have learned from watching PBS.
