Disproportionately, the quality is so low or they are damaged that almost no one considers them worth collecting. They aren't widely collected but I'd say for the most part, anywhere from 95% to 99% of the surviving examples no one will ever want or even under the most optimistic of outcomes are never going be worth a price that makes any difference. I have used the series I collect as examples many times. To make an apples-apples comparison, the most valid comparison is usually (if not always) the number of survivors in comparable quality, not the total mintage. I cannot even begin to remember all of the topics on coin forums where some contributor seems to think there is some significance to low mintage coins like this series or any number of others. Click to expand.The reason I made this distinction is because though the First Spouse series has a low mintage literally, it isn't particularly meaningful.
