There are plenty of Napoleons around, relatively speaking. You can find 'em for $100 on ebay once in a while. Try doing that with an Uzit.

Some of you will remember that I did a survey of T207 populations about 15 years ago, which resulted in a two-part article in the old VCBC Magazine.

Out of 2117 T207s I surveyed, 50 had Napoleon backs - 2.4% of the total.

(A little context: Napoleon backs only appear with "Recruit players" - never with the players who are found with Cycle and Broadleaf backs. A small number of cards with anonymous backs are found on cards from both classes.)

So the 50 Napoleons I found represent 3% of the Recruit population, or about 2.4% of all T207s. Does anyone think that 0.03 of all T206s are Uzits? If you say there are 250-300 Uzits known, isn't that less than 0.0003 of the million or so T206s estimated to exist? IOW, Uzits could be a hundred times as rare as Naps, relative to the sets.

There aren't that many Napoleons graded because they haven't brought that much of a premium from collectors, unlike Uzits. (Plus there are only about 16000 T207s graded compared to more than 320000 T206s, which is an enormous disparity.) But I'll bet that like me, most people who have collected a lot of T207s have several Naps in their collections. Again not true of Uzits. The Naps are out there, not in large numbers but as the OP suggested, they are more like brown Hindus in rarity than Uzits.
