Circulated Vs SMS Coins

I wonder if this will also apply later on with the 2005-2010 Satin finish coins if they get into circulation. You know at some point someone will get grandpa's collection and coinstar them or take them to the bank. Especially if they take them into a coin dealer and he tells them those are common coins and only worth face value when they are not still in the original mint sets.

I'm curios to know what a circulated statin will look like. Maybe just dull

I can make some predictions about how coins will wear because of things like rims, texture, location of high points, etc but for the main part I almost completely rely on experience; just waiting to see. I've only even studied a couple of the satin finish. I'd expect them to often be nice looking AU's but I wouldn't expect it to be visible on many coins below XF+.

Your contention is certainly right at this time. Even with the low mintages prices are extremely low. The real rarity might lie in choice examples of the circulation issues. It's often the case that some dates rarely come nice. If in the future people collect SF then there is every chance that even circulated examples could be deemed "desirable".
