i think the reason for a lower value on a patent number sticker is that they exist with that sticker over a 12-15 year period, rather than 4 or 5

59 PAF’ had longer magnets and no auto stop on the winding machines which gave a much wider range of DC resistances and slightly more tonal variety.
Other main difference is at least 50% on the price.
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I have a guitar with a PAF and an early PAT in.
Both are utterly wonderful, I'm happy to have the PAF - it's a nice 'investment' but truth be told if I needed to replace it, I'd get a PAT

You have to remember that Gibson had no idea that what they were producing pickup wise was 'special' ... they were simply trying to keep pace with demand and not waste old stock.
