There are tens of thousands of 55 DDO's in the wild - it isn't valuable because it is rare. It is valuable because it is significant and popular, and the popularity (as compared to the supply) has driven the price up. If there are only 3 examples of a variety known, it is incredibly rare - but if there are only 2 people that want it, there is far more than enough supply to meet the demand. </p><p><br /></p><p>That's what a lot of people don't understand about key dates. Many key dates have a significant number of examples known, and they trade very often (just try looking for a 09-S VDB Lincoln, or a 16D Mercury - I'll bet you'll find hundreds of them for sale). But, compared to the demand, the supply is inadequate. The same is true for the 55 DDO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
