<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1830374, member: 21705&quot;]As the universe of collectors shrink (demand), so does the supply required to meet that demand and thus keep the price down, even on relatively rare items. This is what slab collectors face and to a lesser extent, variety collectors. While collecting rarer items, the price reflects the lesser demand while far more common items sell at a premium where there is a greater collector base.</p><p><br /></p><p>For example. Most varieties of the 1799 and 1804 Large Cents are relatively common. But any coin from those years has a huge premium because of the demand by date collectors. This is while far rarer varieties of a more common date sell for far less.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is basic economics applied to collectables.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
