Cost of minting a 1oz silver coin in UK / EU

[DanTer]

Hi

Just wondering what would be a cost of minting a 1 oz or  1/2 oz silver coin in UK or in Europe ?

If I have graphic which I would like to put on the coin and require like 300 - 500 coins - what would be approx cost of doing that ? 

Anyone any experience ?

Just reach out to your nearest local mint, or any other for that matter, and ask. Not sure if this list is complete, but there's plenty to choose from https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mints. Private issues are regular part of their business.

I know several people from my local circle of collectors who had their own medal designs successfully produced by the local mint. The lower the mintage, the bigger portion of the total budget is used on the die engraving. You could save some money if your design is relatively simple to engrave or if you satisfy yourself with just one-sided "coin".

BTW note that what you issue will always be a medal or a round, never a coin (which is distinguished by a nominal value on it). At least I assume that it is illegal to produce your own coins in the UK 😁
