    I have a lovely 1911-A 25 Pfennig proof in my collection. I have never been able to track down any reference to mintage numbers for this coin. Does anyone know where I might be able to find this information or if it is available?

    That's all I can find too. I see some pricing for "common proofs 1909-1912" but nothing about mintages.

    I am wondering if these are mislabeled.
    Maybe they should read PL instead of PF.

    Edit
    Actually my world catalog, says that all years had proofs.
    It does not give a mintage so I am thinking that the proofs are part of the whole mintage.

    They are proofs. There are tons of imperial German proofs.

    I’ve worked with him in the past. He knows his stuff. I will probably reach out to him.

    ACoinJob There are still some out there to be had.

    Best I can do on short notice; The info I have is as of late 2017. In the 3 millions were the regular strikes. Proof 63 coins were averaged at $250 each.

    Here is mine. Top photo is my photo, bottom photo is PCGS Trueview. The Trueview gives the coin a yellowish color which is does not have.

    I've notest that the PCGS Trueview pictures don't depict what the coin actually looks like in hand.

    not particularly fond of foreign coins me self, but do dabble if errors or silver, or a remarkable piece, and this one is definitely a beauty!!
