2026 Japan Cherry Blossom Viewing Proof Coin Set
The grounds of the Japan Mint contain many, many cherry trees and. every year, during the cherry blossom sakura season, the grounds are opened to the public for an event known as 'Cherry Blossom Viewing (Sakura no toorinuke)'. Since its inception in 1883 it has remained one of Japan's best loved spring traditions. One of Japan's most popular coin sets, the Annual Cherry Blossom Proof Set is always hotly pursued. Comprising 6 coins, struck to perfect proof quality, each Annual Set also comprises a colourised medal struck in 92.5% Sterling silver. This beautiful medal measures 35mm in diameter and features the 2026 Blossom of the Year. Of the 12,000 sets produced, only 239 of the 2026 Japan Cherry Blossom Proof Set will emerge into the rest of the world. Considering the outstanding heritage of this set, that is truly a TINY figure.
