Comparing a cards scarcity/rarity to a T206 Wagner

[Leon]

That is interesting too.... There are many raw cards but this a telling sign the Cobby is, most likely, more common than the other 2.

Using the E90-1 Mitchell Compared to an E90-1 Cobb and Dougherty which many consider tougher than Mitchell and the pop report shows that it is.

Mitchell 56 of 11,603 graded E90-1 = 0.48%
Cobb 374 of 11,603 = 3.22%
Dougherty 35 of 11,603 = 0.30%

Most likely there wouldn't be as big of a separation with the raw numbers but the survivability of a Cobb over Dougherty or Mitchell over the years has to be a lot higher which relates to another impressive fact about the scarcity of the Wagner.

That is a great read. Couldn't help but think of POG mania (90's kid thing). Could you imagine seeing kids flipping Ty Cobbs through the air calling "heads or tails" to see who gets it? Lol.
