Also "rarity" doesn't exactly equate to "demand," "numismatic interest," or "VALUE" for that matter. I've realized that after collecting South Korean coins for a few years: There are a few coins that could be considered "rare" (mintages in the single-thousands to hundred-thousands) but go for very low prices (especially here in North America) because of low demand. And only because of low demand.</p><p><br /></p><p>It might be instructive for us to hear your reasoning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
