 An acetate is a transitional stage between the master tape and the finished vinyl record. 

It is checked by the sound engineer. There may be only one copy made of a particular recording  but sometimes more are cut and sent  to the studio and band members for approval. The acetate comes before making the master and allows the sound to be checked without great expense. 
It is unusual for more than a dozen to be manufactured so from the collectors point of view an acetate is rare.  If the recording is rejected the acetate may be the only record that survives. The rejected cut may simply be poor quality however the artist may have opted to use a different take of the song if so the acetate becomes much more precious.  It's possibly unique and certainly one of only a handful.
