<p>[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 661584, member: 6370"]But they are rare and even out of the smaller number of collector who collect ancients, more of them will never be in the market to buy it. the rarity alone (and quality) dictate the price more than demand in that case. even if there were just 4 or as many as 400 people in the world looking to buy an aureus, they would still be extremely expensive on rarity and quality.</p><p> </p><p>now, as illustrated here, demand alone CAN set the price. I minted 100 coins to commemorate my daughters birth...100 coins is rather rare...but no one will want one thus there will be no demand for them...if it was some outstanding work of art, maybe people WOULD want them and the demand would go up...that demand was caused by the artistry and quality. demand DOES have a big part to play but the demand is set by other factors which are more important than just saying 'its in demand' WHY is it in demand... its not as simple as just demand=price...There are many different factors affecting a coins price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
