    8,808 were made. I wish I had more business strikes with under 10,000 minted but, alas, I do not. Like the previous, this is a high survivability issue.

    From my understanding, less than 300 minted.

    1968-P US Mint medal, Mintage 4,000. The Philadelphia mint mark is under Mickey's shoe. Disneyland sure isn't what it used to be.

    I had notes about this medal, I have one in my collection.

    The 1954 US Mint National Commemorative had only 50 minted in gold (1.67 ounces, .900 fine). This one was owned by the Mayor of Albany, Erastus Corning 2nd of NY.

    .
    Even the "Poor Man's Gold" version only had 4,000 minted.

    1855-D Gold Dollar mintage 1,811.

    1880 Gold Dollar Mintage 1,600 plus 36 Proofs. It has a high survival rate, however.

    LOVE those! :smiley:

    The early years after they restarted the New Orleans mint after the Civil war. Just misses the cut off with a mintage of a 10,820 but there are few survivors which isn’t always the case with low mintages. It was a real rarity until a few dozen were found in Europe in the 90s. This one is a bit chatty but not bad due to the fact it has deeply PL luster

    But this set is even scarcer. Only 50 sets produced.

    Only 38 of these 12 troy ounce young astronauts US Mint medals were struck.

    Unknown mintage, but based on research and those seen over the years no where near 10,000. Probably a handful remaining?

    Since I've been collecting for nearly fifty years, the last few have been spent targeting low mintage coinage. Mostly world coinage, which did not seem appropriate to post. One example is a near complete Australian Wedge-tailed silver Eagle in MS/PF 70 of the three finishes (uncirculated, proof and high relief). None over the eight year run have a mintage greater than 10,000. Most less than 5,000.
