That's right. The meme José the Amphibian, more commonly known as Pepe the Frog, or just Pepe, is a very popular internet mem that has been around since 1898. Although it is a quite popular meem, not many copies of it exist. Most copies originate from the first mass production of the mem in 1916, when the Great War caused a big request for new and improved memeas. These original copies are very hard to come by and can thus be classified as "rare". This "rareness" is a unique feature that can't be found on most popular mames, giving such rare meams as Pepe a great desirability. This has led to many people trying to create fake copies of our beloved Pepe, such as the Donald Trump variant we can see in the linked article.
