| (Continued from page 1) while grade is important, rarity is increasingly more significant, especially for notes with a census less than ten. For notes that rare, demand powerfully outstrips supply. Consider that only 32 or so small size notes exist have “Brooklyn.” And only 6 for Brigham City, UT. A handful of buyers creates a frenzied market. A few years ago, most notes sold for relatively little above face value. This changed as collector demand increased. But demand still is not close to its potential—not by a long shot. Along with those striving to get one note from each county in a state, or each state in the Union, many non-collectors simply want a note from their home town, or town from or near where parents, siblings, friends or spouses are from.

Since the last big generic gold price surge in the late ’80’s, the numismatic market has quintupled. Price information is readily available, sight unseen trading mechanisms are secure and easy, spreads are low -often under 10% - and confidence in coin quality as a result of PCGS and NGC grading have contributed to a secure, fluid market.
