Apollo Pillar of the Community Canada 1610 Posts	Posted 12/13/2011 10:05 pm No, from the starting of the mintage (1858), it was already in the millions. From 1858-1901 (Victorian) the highest mintage was 3 000 000 (1880 H) and the lowest 200 000 (1884), if you don't count the varieties. It increased quite a bit during the Edwardian reign (all close to 2 000 000, a couple over 5 000 000) and in George V's reign, they all went from around 3 000 000 up to 10 000 000. So even at the starting, it was pretty high in the million - 3 million range (which I wouldn't call a couple thousand) Oh and good luck and great success with your new collection ! (: PS: You'll have to wait 'till Spring or Summer before I post some pics of my collection, so I can advance it a bit... Edited by Apollo 12/13/2011 10:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Ugly Pillar of the Community Canada 1733 Posts	Posted 12/14/2011 08:34 am Charleton represents millions by leaving off the last three zeros. SO 3000 is three million. Report this Post to the Staff
