Greetings all! I just purchased a 1991 Japanese Proof Set. I am only adding this to my collection because that was the year I lived in Okinawa while serving in the U.S. Marine Corps. My question, only for curiosity is, does anybody know where I can find the mintage production numbers for this particular set? I seem to keep running into a wall when I search for it. Thanks!
It would seem that there were 220,000 proof sets made that year by the Japanese Mint. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces983.html
I never thought to look at it that way. Thank You! It is much appreciated!! 220, 000 isn't a huge number so, I am happy!
The 2020 JNDA (the catalogue of Japanese coins printed annually in Japanese) or 日本貨幣カタログ, also says 220,000 for the mintage of the proof set for 1991, or 平成3年.
