Lets see the lowest mintage coins you own and tell us how many are estimated to still exist
My 1752 1 real Peru is the lowest mintage coin I own with a mintage of just 424 (years from 1753-1772 are 50 000-100 000++). The series started in 1751 (the mintage is even lower than the 1751 and only 1-2 exist today). There about 10-20 1752's that still exist today. Brad Yonaka's book on the series says only 4 1752's… -

Seated quarters are all over the place as far as mintages vs survivors. The 1849-o doesn't have an official mintage but is estimated at 16,000. It's a top 10 rarity in the series. Graded F15, it's only one of 3 coins below VF in my set. PCGS estimates 450 survivors which is way too high in my opinion. Probably more like… -
Re: Lets see the lowest mintage coins you own and tell us how many are estimated to still exist
This coin is kind of rare. I mean really really rare, but since no records are kept, it could be 1 of 100 or maybe 1 of a 1000, either way its a very rare coin. But it also looks familiar, and that is because a version of this coin is my current profile picture. In 1953 when this coin was minted an unknown amount was…
