I did a search already and couldn't find anything. My question is, what happened to the Rarity rating on all of the Morgan VAM's? Every VAM used to have a rarity rating associated with each one, but I don't see it anymore. What happened? TIA.

A valid question. The rarity rating is being phased out for several reasons:
- It is an estimate made at time of discovery and is therefore rarely accurate
- It has historically been abused by sellers trying to squeeze money out of a coin that is not rare.
- Even when accurate, it often does not have much correlation to value. When inaccurate, there is none.
- Rarity doesn't mean there is demand.

Ahhh, I see. That makes sense. Thanks for the clarification!
