<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brg5658, post: 1759815, member: 29751&quot;]Correlation and Causation are not the same.&nbsp; While a higher price can be related to a lower-mintage (&quot;key&quot;) coin, price alone doesn&#039;t make a coin rare.&nbsp; The &#039;16-D Mercury dime or the &#039;09-S VDB Lincoln cent are the classic examples.&nbsp; At every show you can find an example if you have the money.&nbsp; They are expensive, yes.&nbsp; But, not hard to find or rare at all.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you want the grand-daddy of all USA coins that is the intersection of both rarity and popularity, then the 1913 Liberty would be a good example.&nbsp; The coin is massively rare, and highly popular -- and the price is accordingly astronomical. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
