<p>[QUOTE="TommyP, post: 2632995, member: 80814"]Well, I'll have to defer to your expertise here but I'd have to think that rarity has more value in the long run versus the flavor of the moment. If I have only one of something and they ain't makin' any more of them then the value almost certainly would have to go up in the long run. I'd also think that the popularity of certain rarities has a lot to do with who knows about it and how much the inferred rarity is 'advertised' if you will. That applies with anything. Look at that 'pickers' show on tv. People buy crap that means nothing to me for some odd reason. Signs, ads, etc. Because there's only one or two of something makes it inherently valuable, in my opinion. Maybe not today but likely tomorrow or someday relatively soon I'd think. I know nothing about ancients so again I'd defer to you but, to say rarity means 'nothing' is a bit steep. Just sayin'. Demand changes like the wind, even in coins (well, alright, sometimes in coins too).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
