I voted Green Cobb but was tempted to vote other. To me the “key” is whatever gets you hooked. And for most that is more likely to be a common that gets them to chase more cards. But for me picking up my Green Cobb was a milestone. Card number 511 for me. I was hoping one of the Cy Young cards would be 511 but I’ll settle for my Cobb.

I voted for the red card because of it affordability, a less scarce version and still a portrait card.

That said, I didn’t factor the most important thing, demand. Would like to change my vote to the green Cobb.

It's no longer even debatable.

Right now, it's the green Cobb for sure. Does that always hold up? I'm not so sure.

Both Demmitt/O'Hara are significantly rarer. They're much closer to the Magie in terms of rarity than even the Cobb is to them. It's a pretty wide gap. Non-set collectors don't care about those cards as much as Cobb. But, by comparison, there are a LOT more of the green Cobbs out there.

i think cobb green has overtaken demmitt and o'hara in desirability and values. Only hard core T206 collectors care about the st louis variations...esp if you're going for the set...but there are way more people who'd want a cobb greeny, IMO.
