There are actually 2 sets here. The Glossy Back set is definitely more valuable than the Matte Back set. This is opposite of the Original Series 2 set. I don't know exactly how this works but I think they started with glossy backs first and then went to matte backs to save money. When series 2 came out, they probably continued doing matte backs until the popularity of these cards allowed them to return to glossy backs. At least that's how I think it went. What we know for sure is that Glossy backs are rare in OS1, but Matte backs are rare in OS2.
