t213 Coupon's vs t206

[marcdelpercio]

I believe that Type 3's are considerably scarcer than Type 2's and only slightly more common than Type 1's. To me, the Type 3's are one of the more interesting and unusual of all tobacco card releases as they seem to be something of an afterthought, released several years after any other similarly styled set and with a checklist that is likely still incomplete. I don't follow population reports too closely, but I have personally tracked this set for awhile and can't name more than a few cards in the set for which I've seen multiple copies for sale over the past several years.

I do agree that the Type 1's are the toughest of all, although I attribute a bit of the added interest in those to some collectors (myself included) who are intrigued by their similarities to the T206 set.

I think that Brandon's estimation of the value multipliers is pretty accurate, from my experience.

So it sounds like I was on track with type 2 being the easiest, then type 3, then 1. Where would you put them in comparison to t206 backs? Would it be close to what I said? I have only paid attention to the set for the last couple of months and haven't really tracked it as much as I am just going off what it seems like.

Type 1: Broad Leaf 350
Type 2: Polar Bear/Sovereign 150/350
Type 3: Brown Hindu/AB 460

Roughly like that if I had to space them in the t206 backs list. Of course this is just based on personal experience and as we all know actual rarity doesn't always match up with value.

Hi Marc, I think you are right on the mark with your analysis of the Coupons.

As far as how they compare to T206 backs, I don't have a clue.

Although almost apples and oranges:
I would think the rarity are somewhere between Andy and Brandon (although as Brandon stated, this is rarity and not price)

Type 1: Broad Leaf 350
Type 2: EDPG/Tolstoi
Type 3: Brown Hindu/Pied F42
