A work of art like Michelangelo's David or a Japanese katana sword are priceless because of the time spent on them and perfection of the craftsmanship. They are handmade and perfect in execution. But for a mass produced item like a coin or a postal stamp (items that we expect to be identical) a slight imperfection resulted from the manufacturing process can increase the value of the said item .
