Just like some do for old RIC rarity ratings. The ERIC II rarity list has been out for some time now but I have not seen anyone do such a unscrupulous thing yet.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, market forces are at work here but then dealers and many dealers collectively have a massive amount of inventory which helps a lot in determining how many coins there are. But in the case of ERIC II list, there are a lot of collectors submitting coins as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>acsearch.info is more market driven than any database that I&#039;ve ever seen, for example. I&#039;ve seen a lot of dealers and beginner dealers try to use the prices on that site because many of the prices are quite high.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as Balbinus and Pupienus goes. I don&#039;t foresee getting those anytime soon. To be honest, any coin that is way out of my reach, I ain&#039;t worried about it too much. Just like those super rare and richly priced Greek coins. I just window shop for those coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
