<p>[QUOTE=&quot;statequarterguy, post: 1286003, member: 21782&quot;]Ah, a new collector?&nbsp; I&#039;m still amazed how some disregard mintage rarity and look only at grade rarity.&nbsp; Although I understand grade rarity, how do you explain what any of the key dates, 1877, 1909-s vdb, 1931-s, 1916-d, etc., sell for in ag3 condition, or for that matter, modern rarities that have gone ballistic in any grade?&nbsp; As for the satins, yes very close to matte proofs, yet much lower mintages than modern cameo proofs.&nbsp; History shows the fact that they&#039;re currently under appreciated to be priceless for future appreciation.&nbsp; Satins could be starting to move now.&nbsp; Take for example the 2008 satin cents, the key date for the Memorial Series.&nbsp; There’s only one seller of these rolls on eBay and he/she is asking $200/roll.&nbsp; Although the price sounds high, it only works out to $4/coin, there are no other 2008 roll sellers, and the mintage is lower than the 1931-s, and probably as many 1931-s cents were saved.&nbsp; I&#039;m sitting on my 2008 satin cent rolls because I figure they&#039;re going to be worth a lot more than $200 (in any grade).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
