[QUOTE="mrbrklyn, post: 270553, member: 4381"]I think that rarety is not enough to create demand. There are countless examples of coins where VG examples are actually harder to find and MS63s. <shrug shoulders> There are more 1909 -s because the deamnd for them is great. How many requests are for 1909-s at a coin show rather than a 1972-D Lincoln? To be fair, I think you'd have to look at 1950 coins as not being all that modern, and nickels are nickels. In terms of post 1964 clad coins I do believe that there are exceptions to this rule. I do believe that High Grade Kennedy's, Eisenhower Dollars, untarnished Sac's, super high grade modern errors, and maybe Susan B's will become more collectable. Proof Sets and some Mint Sets also will gain value over time. The government did everything to make the coins viewed as worthless utilities used for transactions and to emphasis the ink in a passbook savings book as a real value. In that it succeeded and boring ugly designs which were poorly struck was a large part of that. I don't see many people buying boxes of Washign Quarters in search of a 1982 MS 62. But that is just one man's opinion. Ruben[/QUOTE]
