<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1600844, member: 36230"]Total pop is 5, okay? The first time the coin submitted, this added one to the pop. The second time it was submitted, it was cracked out, the original label tossed away, and this raised the pop again, so this single coin, because of two submissions was counted twice in the pops. Then, it was cracked and submitted raw for a third time (again with the label thrown away) so now it has been counted three times. So, being as one coin was counted as three different coins because of resubmissions, it now represents three of the total pop of five, or 60%. Had the labels been returned, the total pop would be three, so this example would show as one of a possible three instead of one of a possible five. This is what was meant by it being important to return labels on low pop coins.</p><p><br /></p><p> Take a look at some of Doug Winter's articles on how the pops of some southern gold are greatly inflated because of resubmissions.
