E77 Bat Nelson and Ad Wolgast - scarcity

[Tao_Moko]

Regarding the e77 nelson/wolgast - because I now own and want it to be scarcer, wondering if that is actually the case. Or, is it just as scarce as the others in the set. My limited research suggests it may be tougher. I don't have good access to pops or historical sales beyond web searching.

Any sales of the Wolgast / Nelson card on VCP are all from ~10 years ago. There were a few SGC 10's and 20's that sold in the $20 - $30 range at that time, but apples to oranges to extrapolate today's prices from those sales.

Looks like a PSA pop of 5 and SGC of 11, which seemed like it was in the same range as most other E77s. So based on that, I wouldn't necessarily think it was any more/less scarce than others from the set.

I missed that one. Need it for my set.

I haven't found any e77 to be scarcier than another but my sample size is relatively small also. Now if you're talking about name placement variations, some of those seem to be rare...

Thank you for the input. I didn't really have high hopes that it was uber rare and $260 is not much of a risk. Do the tpg's identify names to left or right? I believe I read name to right are the more scarce. Still cutting my teeth.

The name on the left is much more common. The name on the right are pretty scarce. That’s my opinion at least. I know SGC specifies name on left to name on right. I’m not sure about PSA.

Sorry for the poor quality photos, but at least you can see the difference between the two. Exact same card just has the writing reversed.
