[QUOTE="boxerchip, post: 857385, member: 19303"]I am confused by your reasoning on my reasoning- My original comment was that "Just due to sheer numbers of boyscouts they will be worth more than issue price." To explain myself in a more clear way- The general coin collectors will be interested by this coin (people such as myself who are not boyscouts etc) in addition to the entire boyscout (past and present) population. The sheer number of coin collectors would not do this to any collector coin because many collectors are not interested in things like.... say Louis braille. "As of 2008, there are over 28 million registered Scouts and 10 million registered Guides around the world, from 216 countries and territories." I dont know how many people collect coins but I would be as bold as to say its not nearly as many as the amount of scouts and people who used to be scouts. Perhaps this is just my skewed view, but I know tons and tons of scouts- the only coin collectors I know are you all on the forum and myself.[/QUOTE]
