Default Higher Grade T206s (raw vs. slabbed)

Posted By: Marc S.

There are myriad old school collectors who have put together T-206 sets that which, today, would largely be EX condition, on average...some better, some worse. However, I think there is a very low likelihood that you would find many opportunities to purchase such a set. Most dealers and auction houses would find positive yield by grading out most of the components of a raw set like that...which limit the availability to purchase for the average collector.

Most major auctions seem to have partial [520] sets available, but they primarily seem to be in VG to VG/EX condition at most, with very few examples at EX or better condition.

Good luck in your quest. Have you considered simply liberating the PSA graded examples you have?
