British Coin Mintage Figures?

[Jennings 1]

Is there a place that has mintage figures for modern (ie: since the 19th Century) British coins? The "red book" in the USA has this information, but my new copy of Spink doesn't. It would be nice to know which Farthings had the lowest mintages.

Cheers,

Coincraft has those.

I think Collectors' Coins has them too.

Yes, Collectors Coins has the Mintage for English coins.

You can buy it here: http://www.predecimal.com/books/bookshop.htm

for a mere £4.50.

Its description says: "Current market values, mintage numbers and variety types for all non gold British coins* dated 1821 - 2003. Includes illustrations of most types and an awful lot of other information."

I'd wait though, the new additions of most of the annual coin books will be comming out soon

Is there a standard date when the new editions come out?

I want to buy the World Coins book from Krause, from 1800-1900 and the 1900-present, but I would prefer buying the latest when I do buy them.

Thanks.

Thanks, is good to know.

Any one knows what are the latest editions available for the Krause books?

If you do not know it by heart, do not worry, I am sure I can find out somewhere on the net, but is so easy to ask here…

The new Spink was published on 8 October. It also has mintage figures, but they're confined to an appendix, whereas "Collectors' coins" has them in the body of the text where they're more useful.

I was contemplating buying a Krause, and I found one it Waterstones. To my amazement, I discovered that copy (I don't know whether it applies to all) was paperback! I expected such a hefty volume to be hardback and when I picked it up, it just felt like a telephone directory.

Yes I think they're all paperback. Although I do have some kind of dim memory of a hardback, but I either imagined it, or it was a while hence.
