Everest Pillar of the Community Taiwan 606 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 12:55 am Kuh_85: The information provided by pennyman007 refers to the price of specimen sets not the mintage. Due to my current location I do not have this information available. I am sure someone will chime in with the mintage figures. I can tell you that the Mirror issues are much scarcer than the Matte issues. Report this Post to the Staff

wireman09 Pillar of the Community Canada 972 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 04:02 am From what I understand there are no records of the actual mintage's of the 1937 Specimen sets. There were two different sets available in 1937, a red presentation set, and a cardboard set. There also was two different finishes available, matte and mirror. The estimated mintage's for these sets is that approx. 1000 sets were issued to collectors in 1937. Complete sets with there original cases are quite rare as many sets were broken up to get the different dollars. My guess would be the survival rate of these sets would be less than 500 known. From an old book (1957) in my library here is a copy of a article referring to these 1937 Specimen sets. Report this Post to the Staff
