[url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Mint_coin_production[/url] It seems that the Mint shows mintage figures for U.S. Coins from 2011 to 2018 (well, 2018 so far) at their website. Not historical ones, though. What about the older figures? Do they keep a copy of their 1890 to present figures somewhere I can get it [B]directly[/B] from the Mint, and not from a coin catalogue? I am asking this because I am being given the run-around from the Bank of Korea concerning their own "official mintage figures," with them telling me over the phone that they do not reveal the actual number of circulating coins being produced because that would "reveal their income statement." I suppose I can appreciate their sensitivity :D, but then how in the heck do the coin catalogs get their mintage numbers??
