Are there really only 13/1500 known copies as per their description, or is that figure out of date? Regardless, that's crazy money.

I'm not sure where the 1,500 total comes from. I've never seen a stated total anywhere. The 13 is a misstatement - that is just the number of that impression that TCG members had (at that time). The real number of extant copies will be much higher (albeit still a fairly small number in the grand scheme of things).
