All of the attempts I&#039;ve seen to date have been a little feeble and half hearted but they are early and they are going to find some of these will move.&nbsp; Many circulating moderns were tough in nice attractive condition when they were issued and all are far tougher now. ...literally orders of magnitude tougher in most instances.</p><p><br /></p><p>This should manifest as the mint sets drying up first because they are virtually the only source of many if not most modern circulating coinage.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is the nature of demand to find supply.&nbsp; They are strange attractors in addition to working for one another by bringing things into existence. There were very few individual wheat plants 5,000 years ago. Today there are almost no nice attractive Gems on the market for some dates.&nbsp; A little demand will find supply because the coins still exist.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps I should just say collectors can be very passionate in looking for what they want.&nbsp; Demand creates supply and this goes several times over in collectibles; anything that exists can come under pressure by collectors.&nbsp; In a real sense high prices result&nbsp; from the highest bid not&nbsp; met no matter how many exist.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
