<p>[QUOTE=&quot;World Colonial, post: 2445552, member: 78153&quot;]Yes, but even using these different scales results in inconsistency in descriptive definition, unless the claim is now that what is rare in one area isn&#039;t in another.&nbsp; It&#039;s still relative rarity.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have only paid attention to the Judd scale even though it is for US patterns because it is simple and at least most of the rarity classifications under this scale are somewhat difficult to find.&nbsp; Under the Universal Rarity Scale, most coins defined as &quot;scarce&quot; and many as &quot;rare&quot; are anything but hard to find or buy.&nbsp; The URS calls these coins rare but actually most of the time, they are not because calling it that when it can be bought at will or on relatively short notice makes a mockery of the concept.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
