Hi All - I know the high numbers (Series 6, #644-752) are pretty scarce compared to the rest of the set.
Howe scarce is Series 5 (#524-643) relative to the sixth series and to the lower numbers?

    My educated guess is series 5 and 6 were issued together, not sure on scarcity but def. issued in much lower quantity than the lower #’s.

    Series 1 and 2 came in the same wax packs, I’m thinking series 3 and 4 were printed together on a 264 card sheet and then same for series 5 and 6. John

    Thanks John. Great info that you shared above and on Net 54. That uncut high # sheet is awesome. I saw the Yaz card sold for over $1K by Greg Morris. I put in bids for a bunch of Series 6 cards and won 11 of them. I didn't realize Series 5 is equally as scarce.
