1938 Boone Half

Mintage=2100

 

known mintage? 1806 large cent


estimated mintage? edward i penny minted in kingston-upon-hull


unknown? aethelred ii penny, any of my roman coins, or even my ancient and medieval chinese cash coins.

 

no idea, too many to count.

 

Considering mintages are unknown until modern times, your question would lead one to believe you are asking only about moderns. In that case, maybe one of my Dahlonega or Charlotte pieces, I am not sure which offhand.

If asking about known coins, I have a few coins I am guessing there may be only a dozen or so in existence. Few others collect them, so no biggie.

 

I bet you all would love to know, along with the rest of the world with a connection to the internet. :devil:

Lowest mintage circulated coin I own...



138K

 

i guess that depends on your definition of modern. edwardian pence mintages are not know for 100% certain, but the wieght of the coins is known, along with the pounds of silver sent to each mint to be used for coinage, so the mintage is fairly certain. not 100% certain, but a very reasonable guess can be made.

 

i'm still searching for my first coin with that kind of mintage! nice coin!
