<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 4761853, member: 26302&quot;]I agree with your conclusion on the 32 D, but disagree on your assertion that what matters is only the certified population. Some of us ARE sitting on a ton of US coins not slabbed. I own coins in tubes that were taken from 1960&#039;s era folders, I have BU rolls of certain dates. To assume, especially in the last 70-80 years, that all good coins are slabbed is a mistake. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, pop numbers of slabbed coins by definition unreliable. They never went to the trouble of tracking the coins, so it is massively unknown how many crackouts and regrades there were.</p><p><br /></p><p>Are pop reports good data? Yeah, for older coins its good indicative data of rarity. However, to pay a ton of money on a modern coin based only on pop data I think is a little risky. Anyone can collect what they like, but paying a lot of money for a 50 year old quarter because its a 67, (choose whatever grade you want), would make me nervous. What if a couple of nice rolls get sent in?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
