I just checked on the PSA and SGC registries. My gauge for 500+ card sets or partial sets was if they were 95% complete or better. The PSA registry lists 16 current sets of 500+ and SGC lists 4 for a total of 19 registered sets of 500+. Like others here, I would guess these account for a small percentage of the actual T206 sets out there. In my set, I have about 60 HOFs and rarities graded, but most of my set is raw and not on either registry. But 500 sets sound a bit high to me. I would guess 300, give or take a few, is in the ballbark. Ted makes a good point about the numbers of the tougher cards like O'Hara and Demmit, but of course, one does not need those to climb over the 500 mountain. If we were to take the number of sets at 520+, it would obviously be a lot fewer.
