Is the Mintage on the 1990 coin correct?

N#568

 

The ownership rate of the 1990 is similar to that of the 1992 and 1994 dates, despite the mintages being so different.

 

Is it possible that the correct mintage for the 1990 coin should be 94,900,000 instead of 949,000?  Did Krause forget a zero?

Krause doesn't list any mintage at least not in the newer catalogs.

These are the moments I really would like to have something like  Blablabla[1] or 100.000[2], where we can have a source.

About ten years ago I bought a kilo lot with many Greek coins in it. These are the ones I have:

1990 -7 pieces

1992 -27 pieces

1994 -6 pieces

1998 -none

2000 -2 pieces

 

I think you are right about the mintages….

My collection quantities are as follows:

 

1990 -7 pieces

1992 -8 pieces

1994 -6 pieces

1998 -none

2000 -1 pieces

 

Whilst discussing this coin, can I ask why there is not a line for the variant with inner circle next to beaded border along the rim?

Just because you can't see it ... doesn't mean it isn't there - Anon.

I unlocked the entry for potential change requests :-)
