<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2362908, member: 74282&quot;]The dynamics of the ancient coin market are quite different from that of moderns. For one there are likely less collectors. Secondly, with moderns, especially US coins, scarcity and demand are intimately linked. This is not always so with ancients. Some of the Republican bronzes I own for instance are types with less than 20 known to me, including the major museum collections and auctions in the past 20 or so years and yet they cost me sometimes well under $100 because there are only a handful of collectors of those types and the coins aren&#039;t high grade(and there are probably no high grade examples at all).</p><p><br /></p><p>On top of that, many popular types are quite plentiful as they circulated widely and so they remain relatively inexpensive even with demand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
