Dime Sold for Almost $1.6 million

i have recently read about an 1894-S Barber dime, sold for almost $1.6 million.
impresive price. why do people pay such money for coins?
how much money would you give for a rare coin?
do you have any other news or interesting information on this subject?
if you are interested in details i can give you the link:

The sold dime is in fact very rare, one of the rarest coins in the United States, being graded PCGS Proof-64. The data from the US Mint shows that only 24 dimes of this kind were struck. According to Stack's catalogers, today only 10 are known.


hope this helps ::)

Awsome !

But still only worth the silver Melt Value to me.

Not a coin Collector.
