There were 25 Cobbs total in the lot! The other 3 people in the group wanted 2s but I knew how rare the 3s were so I ended up with a near set of 3s, all in VG to EXMT. I lacked 2 cards of having the entire set and was able to find two T213-3s which were unknown at that time. Long gone now, sold them to Bill Mastro 20 years ago...

I'm sure you've told the story before but what was the southern find?
