[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3128553, member: 10461"]Don't know where you got that 127K mintage figure from (I don't see it on [URL='https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces969.html']Numista[/URL] or on [URL='https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/trinidad-and-tobago-cent-km-1-1966-1973-cuid-1112520-duid-1569687']NGC/Krause[/URL]). The ones from mint sets are the Franklin Mint issues (1971-FM, issued in matte uncirculated and proof). A 1971-FM proof is shown on the Numista page. The 1973 appears to have been issued only as a regular business strike for circulation, which is obviously what you have there. [USER=78298]@Michael K[/USER] is correct- the mintage was 10 million, and this is just a circulated example. Keep on huntin', though! You'll score a cherrypick sooner or later! Even after decades of plucking through bulk lots, I still sometimes fool myself in ways like this, and momentarily think I've scored a good one, only to find out I was looking it up wrong. Happens all the time. The important thing is to keep looking! :)[/QUOTE]
