Anything like t215 Red Cross or t213 type one esp but really all types of coupons. There was a period of time where a handful of tea 215 Red Cross type ones languished on eBay for around $100 each because they had some back damage now they are $1000 cards?

Agree, Pete. Also the T213-3s, especially the HOFers in the set have skyrocketed. Back in the 80's and 90's it seemed no one wanted the series 3 (1919) cards because they had muted colors compared to the 2nd series which were brighter, sharper and glossy, (even though they were much, much tougher). Now compare the prices for nice commons in series 3 vs. nice commons in series 2.
