[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1647349, member: 26302"]Yes, its one POSSIBLE scenario. ;) My point wasn't about age though, it was about SERIES. Why are Jackie Robinson gold coins valuable? Why are 20th anniversary set ASE's valuable? Because they are the rarest issue IN A SERIES. Many others own OTHERS in the series, therefor making the lowest mintage in the series more desired. Your argument is everyone will come rushing in to want THE WHOLE SERIES. This is a different argument completely. If I do not own any ATB pucks, why on earth are you assuming in the future I will want to own ANY ATB pucks? My analogy was some series are more popular than others, and a small, hard to store series like this one may NEVER have any demand increase for any of them. Arguing a whole series will become more popular in the future is a whole lot different than saying a new key to an already popular series will increase in price. Is it possible? Yeah, I am just pointing out though that its a very different argument than asking why a key date of a very widely collected series is desired.
