Mintage alone doesn't drive demand.


Any one who collects Mexico will nod their head in agreement to that.

well. I started to read the first article gotta say man you have me hooked and interested in that topic in the first article! so interesting... well done

the second comment I have is this-

regarding mintage being the ultimate indicator for demand on coins and mexican coins. Yes, after some observation of coins with limited mintage, low mintage, and say Mexican Libertads...


I agree. Low mintage is not the only true indicator of demand for a coin. One thing that really seems to trump that is simply when a coin is disliked and comes in well below its mintage numbers. Then a rush of buyers comes in AFTER the fact.

However, to me the ultimate indicator of demand with coins I feel is price. As the price rises, more and more demand bumps it up. To me, this seems like a common strategy that befits trades, buying high and selling higher.

anyways, getting off topic here, sorry! Great job once again

Im not talking about bullion coins. I'm talking about circulating coins.

Coins with around 1000 mintage that sell for melt... No Demand.
