Sovereign 350 Apple Green Backs

[sreader3]

Sovereign Apple Green has achieved broad acceptance as a distinct back type. It was printed only with 350/460 regular print and superprint subjects. In part for this reason, it is scarcer than Sovereign 350 Forest Green which was printed with a much larger group of 150/350 and 350-only subjects. My research showed that T206 commons with the Sovereign Apple Green back commanded a 2.4X premium as of May 2012, a considerably higher premium than those with the Sovereign 350 Forest Green back. Anecdotally, I have several T206s with Sovereign 350 Forest Green in my collection but only one [Bradley (With Bat)] with Sovereign Apple Green.
