<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2499860, member: 19165&quot;]Many so-called &quot;key dates&quot; aren&#039;t actually rare at all, from a numerical standpoint. The 16D Merc has tens of thousands at just PCGS and NGC, and many more tens of thousands in other slabs or raw. It is not rare. Similarly, the 1909S VDB Lincoln is not rare at all - many, many thousands exist (same with the 55 DDO). </p><p><br /></p><p>It is expensive because there is simultaneously a very high demand for these coins. Where the supply curve and the demand curve intersect is the value point. One can argue whether the high demand is due to the marketing prowess of salesman or not - but these coins are definitely not rare in any absolute sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
