in the u.s. 2 million is low mintage.
on the other hand the fact that foriegn coin collectors are few means demand
for foriegn coins is low. this is only a 10 dollar coin. i do not think that
is so much to encourage a 15 year old. my son is 14 an able bodied and still
needs encourgement.

Ken,

    You are so ood about offering collectibles to people. I remember the
coke
bottle your obtained for me. You said the coin had a low mintage(8,000, I
believe) what is a typical range for a mintage?
