This explains why the mintage numbers remain unpublished. There were figures bandied around 5k to 25k but they were just guesses and were not from primary sources like the B.H. Meyer Mint where they were made.

I'm curious on why Rwanda chose famous sailing ships as a coin series, other than a lake, the country is land locked with no direct access to the oceans.
I like a coin mysteries.

Thanks for the comment @cve3
