stratocaster Valued Member United Kingdom 240 Posts	Posted 06/03/2007 1:26 pm Ring composition is Aluminium-Bronze, center composition is Steel. 1989 mintage figure is 249,980,000 pieces. XF-2.5$, UNC-6$. 1988, 1989, 1990 are common. 1991and 1992 exist in both medal and coin alignment, with plain or reeded rim. Varieties exist for 1992-1997, with mintage figures between 8,000(1996)-25,000(1995).The coin was minted until 2001, when it was replaced by the euro, but I don't have the mintage figures. Your coin could be XF or aUNC in my opinion, though I'm not very experienced in grading. Report this Post to the Staff
