<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2199780, member: 15929&quot;]Thanks.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=59002]@Amanda Varner[/USER] posted on her &quot;Life at the Coin Shop&quot; blog an eye opening article on the subject of &quot;Scarcity vs Rarity&quot; and her experience in learning the difference.</p><p><br /></p><p>Read the blog here:&nbsp; <a href="http://lifeatthecoinshop.com/2013/11/19/scarcity-vs-rarity-and-my-first-big-lesson/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://lifeatthecoinshop.com/2013/11/19/scarcity-vs-rarity-and-my-first-big-lesson/" rel="nofollow">http://lifeatthecoinshop.com/2013/11/19/scarcity-vs-rarity-and-my-first-big-lesson/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>And take note that it all boils down to:</p><p><br /></p><p>Scarce: Something of which there are not very many</p><p>Rare: Something of which there are not very many, that people actually want.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the Reverse Proof Presidential Dollars, folks &quot;want&quot;.........</p><p>.........to jump onto the flipping bandwagon and these very folks are the one&#039;s bolstering the market for these. Which is fine by me.</p><p><br /></p><p>But...........that false market can only last for so long and that is where the true value of the coin comes in. It will always be scarce (to the tune of &lt;17,000) but will folks actually &quot;want&quot; the coin(s) once interest has died?</p><p><br /></p><p>That is the high dollar gamble which I simply cannot buy into at $150 or $200 a set.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again, check back in 2018 which will be a couple of years after the Presidential Dollar Series has ended and the US Mint is heavy into whatever else it has planned to support it&#039;s deficit busting desires.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
