Message:: [QUOTE="mlov43, post: 2175478, member: 16729"]You are clever! The 40th anniversary of the 30th anniversary (in 1975) of Liberation, right!   40+30=70 years since the end of the Pacific War.   I wonder if Komsco has a coin planned for the 70th anniversary of Liberation?  Haven't seen anything so far.  They did a very decent silver proof for the 60th (see below). And thanks for your input.  I do try to put some local perspective on the "happenings" in the country in the year that the coins are introduced and/or circulated, and this I felt was particularly important since they were minted and released in the country.  That's not always the case with developing countries, such as S.Korea's first commemoratives: They were minted in Europe and sold by Italcambio outside of Korea.  I was just looking up the 1974 commemorative silver and gold coins made for Cambodia, also most certainly made by Italcambio, too.  Those coins probably were never sold in Cambodia, either.[ATTACH=full]420616[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
