<p>[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 519236, member: 9474"]All based on supply and demand. Here is another example using the very one you gave. Thomas Jefferson Comm fetches around $30-40 on ebay. Right? Even better, the RFK half dollar with a mintage of 200k for both options still fetches the same. Ok, now the American Buffalo Silver Dollar with a mintage of 500k on both options can't be found for less than $150. Doesn't make sense right? How can a coin with a mintage of less than half the mintage of the Buffalo commem be worth a fraction of its value?</p><p> </p><p>Easy..... Supply and demand. More people are looking for the buffalo commem than the Jefferson or JFK which make them harder to get, which therefore drives the price up.
