Sometimes... depended on the manufacturer, and also the "era" the game came out
I read a discussion one time where a guy had. #008 Mr. Do. A particular Asteroids machine had gold artwork (though I orget the significance at the moment). Those are just a couple examples. You could probably find more going through the klov forums, which are more arcade focused.
As for holy grail, depends on the collector; there are multiple hard to find games still out there whih may be a grail to one person, but junk to another. Again, klov for more info.
RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.
