<p>[QUOTE=&quot;totally, post: 2473983, member: 80371&quot;]I think it&#039;s a function of mintage, how old the coin is, and demand for it.</p><p><br /></p><p>For example, there is a lot of demand for the 100 year old 1916 Standing Liberty with a mintage of 50k that makes it seem very low. But the modern first spouse coins have little to no demand and only 2k were made. The 1796 quarter had 6k minted 220 year ago and it has extreme demand due to a 1 year type set. The 6k mintage of the 1796 quarter feels like much much less than the 2k from the first spouse and way fewer than the actually 9 times less than the 1916 standing liberty.</p><p><br /></p><p>In generally I consider under 100k to be &#039;low mintage&#039; for the older coins I collect because I don&#039;t collect any of the 1900+ keys like the 1916D, 1909S VDB etc. If the latter was the case, I might consider under 1M low mintage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
