[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 2475162, member: 76863"]It's possible he did only he can answer that. I agree though, the lowest mintages often have the highest survival rates since everyone knows they're the lowest mintage. I do. You don't have to study something to collect it. The definition of collecting is basically a group of objects that someone acquires. If you don't study what you do you will probably make a lot of mistakes and certainly wouldn't be a numismatist, but you don't have to be an expert to be considered a collector. Type set collectors wouldn't be considered serious collectors by the definition of having to be very knowledgeable about what they collect. There's plenty of collectors that can grade and appreciate coins that couldn't write a history report on them[/QUOTE]
