<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2922889, member: 1765&quot;]Mintage numbers are available <a href="http://tradedollar.blogspot.com/p/british-trade-dollar-mintage-tables.html?_sm_au_=iVVt1nnFVPsnTF4r" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://tradedollar.blogspot.com/p/british-trade-dollar-mintage-tables.html?_sm_au_=iVVt1nnFVPsnTF4r" rel="nofollow">here</a>.&nbsp; They don&#039;t necessarily reflect what was released or what survives.&nbsp; The 1921-B had its entire mintage melted, save for a few coins.&nbsp; 1934-B is also one of the scarcest dates, despite a mintage of over 17 million, most never being released.&nbsp; The most common dates seem to be 1929 and 1930.&nbsp; This is no doubt due to asymmetric attrition throughout the series.&nbsp; Pre-1921 dates were probably recalled to England and melted during WWI.&nbsp; The design also made them really popular for jewelry.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mintages of the overdates are always included in those of the intended date of the coin.&nbsp; One can assume that the mintages for these are the average number of coins struck on a die, unless there is a lot of damage to the die that would cause it to be retired before such a number was struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s very tempting to study these as I do Morgan Dollar VAMs, but the information and the coins are both far more difficult to acquire.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
