<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1864700, member: 26302&quot;]A mintage of 1500 is only low if there are more than 1500 people who want one. If only 500 people want one, there are way too many right? </p><p><br /></p><p>Way too many collectors concentrate on mintages. What is a low mintage for an extremely popular US coin is a horribly excessive mintage for the rest of the world. Even in US terms mintages are very relative. I have half dollars from the 1880&#039;s with mintages less than 10,000 that sell for not much. </p><p><br /></p><p>Supply and DEMAND are what makes prices go up, not just supply. </p><p><br /></p><p>Not saying its not a nice coin, and I glad you like them. I am just saying &quot;mintage of only X&quot; NEVER guarantees scarcity or desirability absent demand information. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
