Something like brockages, off center strikes, or similar all will have various difference that can affect value. Maybe some off centers are less offcenter, or a couple do not have sates, etc. That is what I meant, there is not enough volume of them to create a true market price, only a generalization.</p><p><br /></p><p>So yes, while every coin is unique most unique features do not affect value.
