I voted Trout, he seems to be this generations Albert Pujols.

The price difference in 15 years from now would be nice to know? I would pick the Cobb in that one.

I voted for Trout. JC, I like the contests where the winners get a prize, like an Eddie Murray rookie in vg/e or something. Rob

Which will sell for more? Trout.

Which would I rather have? Cobb (in a heartbeat).

How many of those Trouts exist (grade notwithstanding)?

I have no idea what the Trout is worth and I would rather have the Cobb a zillion times over. I do NOT understand modern. But, I am glad it’s healthy - what’s good for cards is good for all cards.

It does feel "icky" that a new shiny card would beat out Cobb, but the fact of the matter is that EVERYONE knows about the 2009 Bowman Trout. Very few know what a W600 Cobb is, or why it would be more than a T206. The Trout is extremely apparent. I think Trout wins this one easily, though, again ... it doesn't feel right saying it out loud.

Modern’s artificial scarcity and prices do not make sense to me. But, to each his/her own. I’ll take the Cobb which was mass produced, but is scarce due to the attrition of time; Not the card that went straight from a pack to an encased protective holder.
