<p>[QUOTE=&quot;baseball21, post: 2474676, member: 76863&quot;]A couple have some potential but that series was dead in the water as soon as it started when they used gold for it.&nbsp; Not many people can tie up a 100k plus in one collection much less one series of a collection.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t disagree with a lot of what you&#039;re saying, but the question was what do you consider a low mintage coin.&nbsp; Something doesn&#039;t have to be hard to find or even valuable to be low mintage.&nbsp; Survival rates and popularity and value are entirely separate issues.&nbsp; The mintage is the mintage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Those other factors are certainly important in making decisions and knowing when to pay up for something but if 1 survives or 100 percent survive the initial mintage was the same.&nbsp; Now there is one area where I will concede that post mintage actions would influence the mintage.&nbsp; If the government never releases a portion of them and melts them down before they ever hit the streets I would adjust the mintage number to exclude those coins since they might as well have never existed where others may say the mintage was still what it was but some were destroyed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
