Low serial numbers worth more?

Hi all,
New to the forum! :) And probably been buying coins for the past year, just wanted to get some opinions on whether low serial numbers are more valuable?

Received an order for the D&D Brown snake with cert #0002 which I was extremely exited to see!
 
I doubt it will make that much of a difference.

Unless its a lunar proof with 888 =D.

a D&D Brown snake #2 will make a big difference in price.
i remember someone here sold a misprint brown snake for $1005.
 
I know a source of low number Proof Rabbits. I bought a couple, one was number 9 the other 11.

They had 4, 6, 7, 10.

I was wondering where 8 was, I wanted number 8. Dealer said sometimes the perth mint will reserve numbers and pick them out for overseas markets.

A low number will not hurt it's resale that is for sure. As too how much premium it really depends. A mate of mine snapped up a Lunar dog series with cert # 007 I am sure someone will pay little extra for that one. I know if he wasn't getting it I was :)

Classic Projack :D

Unfortunately my mates set would not be up for sale in any foreseeable future would have made a nice addition to your collection.

It was the 4 coin set in box I think it was $245 or $255 either way still pricey but way cheaper than current ones.
 
If it's seriously the difference between $100 and $1,000 based on the paper COA I reckon there's some guys I know who could knock up a COA any number I want. Seriously, its a given its going to happen for just a piece of paper.
 
Thanks for the opinions! Will be interesting to see how much it goes for if I ever sell it... and that is pretty cool Projack!

You would need to make a box also for most of them. I think it may add 10% -20% depending on the number. Under 00010 (High) and any runs ie: 1234(Med) or 8888(V High) or 7777(Med) or 65432(Med) etc...
 
I think you'd just need to make the paper COA. My series 1 Lunars are just in a case that are all generic, the outer box/sleeve are all generic. The only difference between any of them is the paper COA, that's the bit you'd only need to change.

I suspect if you took my 2000 Dragon Proof and knocked up a new COA with say the number 2000, it would go for $500+ whereas the coin as is now with number whatever, would sell for maybe $200.

if you are thinking of selling it the best time would be just after the last release (the box jelly fish i believe) which will bring the prices of all the D@Ds up. from then on it will probably be all down hill.
 
I sold 6x5gm PM gold bars with certicard 3 months ago.

Client emailed back after receiving it questioning the authenticity of the bars because they bars where numbered:

0000001
0000002
0000003
0000004
0000005
0000006

I told him he could get an immediate refund or replacement.
Never heard from him again.

Really kicking myself.
