OK, I finally got around to counting my T206s tonight. My Monster Number is 178, in that I have 178 unique fronts from the set (and none of the Big Four, needless to say).

For 12 of the 178, I have another card with the same front but a different back, and for two fronts (Camnitz arm down and Camnitz arms up) I have versions with three diffferent backs. So I actually have 194 T206 cards in all, but 178 unique fronts, which is the basis for my Monster Number.

I gather we get no credit for the backs, but as I've posted before, I have a number of tough backs, including two Lenoxes, a Broad Leaf 350, three Carolina Brights, two Hindus, four Cycle 460s, and all the less common ones.

You have actually read the rules and interpreted them correctly, you are thus rewarded with three Monster Numbers.

Oh, right. So my first Monster Number is 178, my second one is 14, and my third one is 2. Some of these people with good T206 back runs must have a bunch of Monster Numbers!
