[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3515016, member: 46237"]You make a very interesting point. It is relative. I find the Hungarian aluminum issues to be beautiful and very underappreciated. Some of the supposedly common Hungarian aluminum and aluminum-bronze issues are impossible to find in high MS grades, especially select dates/types from 1948-1953. For example, I've been looking for years for a 1948BP 5 fillér (mintage of 24 million - listed as common) and have only found one fine details example. Whereas Krause lists the 1948BP [B]50[/B] fillér as being exceptionally rare, with a list price that is four to five times what they sell for even slabbed, and yet they are everywhere. I never considered this before, but I wonder if Krause just made a mistake in recording the rarity between the 1948BP [B]5[/B] fillér and the 1948BP [B]50[/B] fillér and it's never been corrected. :facepalm:[/QUOTE]
