question about T205 backs

I have seven T205 HOFers, all PSA 3 or 4 that I am going to offer for sale soon. Five are either Piedmont or Sweet Caporal backs. Other two are Sovereign back (Jennings) and Hassan back (Tinker). Question: Are the backs on either of these two sufficiently scarce to command a little bit of a premium? Thanks.

P.S. I plan to offer on the board here first.

    My experience is the backs with t205s do not command the premiums that t206 backs command. Maybe a very small one if any

    According to the guys over at net54 who specialize in collecting the T205 set, both the Sovereign and Hassan Factory 30 backs would have a 10% premium over a Sweet Caporal or Piedmont back for a common card, but would have no premium for a HOFer card since the card of the HOFer carries a premium on it anyway. The Hassan Factory 649 back has no premium either way.

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks for the info. Much appreciated. I will post them in the next week or two on B/S/T.
