Isn't this cheap for a Green Cobb

perhaps more people do not trust PWCC and did not bid.

Nothing to do with SGC. There is no pre war premium.
It’s a good price for sure. I’ve seen 2 of that quality go in that range. One got sold here on net 54 in about 2 seconds . Both were PSA

I think this is the case. It's hard to overlook the many prewar cards that PWCC auctions, "sells" and then immediately auctions again, over and over and over.

its graded A...its altered...but beautiful...and a BIN??

Don't know how much credence you take in pop numbers, but looking at just the 2 grade PSA pop:

Green 186
Bat On 174
Bat Off 178

3 grade and up the Green Cobb has least pop. I would have guessed Green Cobb to be most scarce across the whole board.

It’s not uniquely rare compared to the other 3 Cobbs.

I don’t think PWCC auctions command the premium that they used to.

(Excuse the sentence ending in a preposition—especially if Barry S. is still lurking).

Scarcity and demand are not correlated as closely as we might like. My personal theory is that the green Cobb is in higher demand than the red Cobb because the Young portrait is green too and they look great together.

I am not sure if that population breakdown is for all 2’s with all the various advertising backs.
The other thing is what is the breakdown of the various advertising backs for each of those. Which have more of the common backs vs more rare backs.

You see far less of the green portrait come up for sale in 4 grade or higher than you do on the other three poses. Seems every auction these days has a red background, bat on or bat off in a Psa 5 slab in its catalog.

When was the last time you saw a green Cobb pop up in Psa 5 condition, let alone in a Psa 4 slab. Don't get me wrong, there have been a few, but its slim pickens. I also think the green Cobb is much tougher to locate centered than the other 3 poses.

My two cents...

Since we are discussing Green Cobbs, this one is listed on an auction site I follow. Assure me this is a fake so I am not tempted to keep watching it.
