<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sonlarson, post: 2465110, member: 15488&quot;]A little history. Argentina produce mint sets in only 4 years. 1977 and 1978 having the same set. This set shows 1978 on the cover but the coins are dated 1977. Not sure what that means, if anything.</p><p>This set marks the first time a host nation issued a a set to commemorate the World Cup Games.</p><p>The set also contains the 1st Silver coins issued by Argentina since 1885.</p><p>The 1000,2000, and 3000 Pesos combine for 1.4467 oz. ASW. Each of the three show mintage of 98,837. The 20,50, and 100 Pesos are Aluminum Bronze.</p><p>The Bronze coins seem to have survived the soft mint plastic cover better than the Silver. The 2000 Pesos does show some nice toning.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also picked up 2 of the 3 coin mint sets which have the Bronze coins only. I&#039;ll probably sell or trade those.</p><p><br /></p><p>Argentina 1978 Mint Set. Mintage na</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]517466[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
