<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 1907508, member: 5233"]That's not what I said...you are missing the point. Most coins get circulated...thus only a small percentage of the original mintage are saved in MS. This is not the case of the 1950-D nickel. It was well known prior to it's release that it would be a very small mintage so they were hoarded in high grade and not circulated. As a result, MS examples are more common today than circulated examples. There are more MS examples of the 1950-D in existence today than other higher mintage dates.</p><p><br /></p><p>My point is, the mintage alone doesn't dictate the value. It's all about supply and demand. There is a large supply of these coins in MS...that is why they are so cheap relative to their mintage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
