Default To Grade, or not to Grade....that is the Question regarding T206 set(s)

* * * * * * * * * * T206 Reference, Theory's, Surveys, etc. * * * * * * * * * *


Speaking about an all - T206 SOVEREIGN SET. Besides mine, I know of three other Net54ers who have also completed this set, since I did it back in 2007.
Although, this complete basic set consists of only 402 different subjects, it is not an easy set to complete. Mine is 93.6 % Un-graded. Two of the other sets
that I know of are Graded, and the 3rd set (I think) is partially Graded.

The Six Super-Prints ** were printed with both the SOVEREIGN 350 and SOVEREIGN 460 backs. The Super-Prints 460 back is considerably tougher to find
than the regular 460-only series subjects (46) in the set.

I am happy to call my set complete with 408 cards. Although, I do have about 34 more cards towards a SOVEREIGN master set of 476 cards.

If you are contemplating completing a SOVEREIGN set, this red Cobb with the SOVEREIGN 460 back is a "toughie". It was the last card I needed for my set.


Whatever, the main topic here still remains.....Graded vs Un-graded.....so Show-n-Tell us about your T206 cards (sets).
