With US coins there are probably well over 100k 16d dimes and 09sVDb cents, but US collectors call these &quot;rare&quot;. Heck, I can go to almost any ancient catalog and find a coin in which the experts believe only a handful exist, and they sell for about the same price. I think &quot;rare within a series, in which people are attempting to collect the series&quot; would have to be the correct analysis. If not, how do you explain the prices of SL halves from the 1880&#039;s? All of those coins are MUCH rarer than most &quot;keys&quot; in US coins, yet are lower priced. The reason is no one really attempts to collect all SL halves anymore.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
