3:15 PM - Rarities, Bargains, and Neat Stuff - John Frost
This presentation discusses different types and definitions of Rarity for coins, and discusses how this is translated into value. Bargains are coins of increased rarity that can be had at little or no premium over more common coins. Neat Stuff are those coins that one never comes across, and are just too neat not to buy. Examples and exhibits abound.
John has been a coin collector for over 30 years, and specializes in Barber coinage, 2 and 3-cent pieces, and scarce date type coins. Additionally, he has a personal interest in rare coins in unusual states of preservation. He is the webmaster for the Barber Coin Collectors' Society.
