<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1077729, member: 39&quot;]Not sure what the current price is, but assuming it is 1,500 US dollars, here is a possible explanation: &quot;Currently after the 1982 proof coin with a mintage of just 2,000, the 1998 500 won is said to be the second rarest. This is simply because none of them circulated in South Korea. 8000 of such coins were produced only in mint sets and all of them were meant for export.&quot; <a href="http://www.gxseries.com/numis/koreatype/koreatype_early_all.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.gxseries.com/numis/koreatype/koreatype_early_all.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.gxseries.com/numis/koreatype/koreatype_early_all.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>As for other expensive coin sets, well, here in the euro area there is the Vatican 2002 set for example: €1,000 in proof, €500 in BU. The price is so high because those were the very first VA euro sets, and there aren&#039;t too many of them. Monaco is a little less expensive; the 2001 sets are about €600 (proof) and €300 (BU).</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
