<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 24676986, member: 13650&quot;]Thanks for sharing that one!&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ve updated the original post a bit to better explain the reasons for the slow year and updated the numbers to accurately reflect the ledgers.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Any coin that has an estimated survival quantity of 800 I would call pretty rare, just because very few of them are for sale at any given point.&nbsp;&nbsp; I guess I&#039;m looking at it from an availability standpoint. </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I saw a description online saying &quot;the 1815 quarter is abundant in MS grades to fufill demand.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; NGC has graded 50 of them in MS grades! lol&nbsp; &nbsp; Abundant wouldn&#039;t be the term I&#039;d use. </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The quarters are estimated to have approximately 1900 left in existence and there&#039;s only 48 currently listed on ebay in all conditions.&nbsp; &nbsp; Not impossible to get one but it&#039;s not exactly a huge selection and many are slicks, damaged, or extremely valuable.&nbsp; &nbsp; Surviving population doesn&#039;t mean high (or even reasonable) quality that you want to pay for and own, either.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If you walk in to a coin show, there&#039;s probably not going to be an example of one there and there certainly wont be a half in any shape.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; I know there are rarer coins out there that there&#039;s only a handful of examples of.&nbsp; &nbsp; Would call them extreme rarities.&nbsp;&nbsp; I know there&#039;s a scale.&nbsp; &nbsp; 1815 is a tougher date for sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
