Depending on one's budget, this is how I would prioritize buying T206:


1. HOF Rare Backs [A]- the biggest HOFers you can afford, with the rarest backs you can afford

2. Common players with the rarest backs you can afford

3. HOF Rare Backs [B]- mid-tier HOFers, with mid-tier rare backs

4. HOFers with common backs

5. Southern Leaguers

6. Common players

I like this strategy! I only have one 206 currently and it's mostly because I wanted a Cy Young card. I liked his glove pic the best (not a fan of portraits) and Old Mill is my 2nd favorite back (1st is Polar Bear), so I snagged a Young in a 1.5.
