<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1323865, member: 39&quot;]Umm, yes, that is what I meant when I wrote that &quot;The total mintage was 100,000 but probably less than one tenth of that still exists - and definitely much fewer in that grade.&quot; We should keep in mind that the original mintage figures mean hardly anything when it comes to how many are available today.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the &quot;business strike&quot; pieces, about 90 million 3RM coins (all Weimar types combined) were issued. Roughly 70 years ago, only 2 to 3 million pieces had not been redeemed yet - thus less than 3%. Even if we assume that people tend to keep commemorative pieces, there won&#039;t be many around.</p><p><br /></p><p>The precise number of proof pieces is not known, which is fairly normal for German Empire coins. But according to the Jaeger they cost between €450 and €550.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
