[QUOTE="arizonarobin, post: 3377119, member: 41036"]I love rare types when they fit within my collecting interests. A rare coin of Julia Domna, or one of the rare Stobi issues is definitely interesting. However, Rare coins outside of my collection don't hold any particular interest just because they are rare. Also many coins are "rare" because of a legend variation or break or something small, but overall there are coins with the same portrait and reverse- these I find less interesting than say a Rare Domna from Corinth! Rarity in this age also goes quickly with some types. What was rare when I started collecting 20 years ago is sometimes not so rare today!
