Mintage:

Swiss commemorative coins issued in Uncirculated (BU) quality for blister packs generally have limited mintages. For the 2020 "Susten Pass" 20 Francs silver coin, the Uncirculated mintage would be a specific, controlled number (e.g., around 20,000 pieces) released for collectors. (Proof versions typically have even lower mintages, around 5,000 pieces).

This coin is a highly desirable item for collectors of Swiss coinage, those interested in geography and Alpine themes, and anyone who appreciates well-designed silver commemorative coins in their original mint packaging.
