In my selling experience, there is good demand for popular cards that are really, really beat up-- Goudey Ruth, etc. I got good money for a really, really beat up T205 Joss. This is because it's a rare chance for a collector on a small to normal budget to own one of the cards he always wanted to own. For many to most collectors, a few hundred dollars is a lot of money to be spending on a baseball card, and PSA Ex or VgEx 1933 Goudey Ruths or T206 Cobbs are out of their collecting budget.
A T205 probably contains 1/30th the copper of a penny.
