Opinions please 1961 Maundy set

Cruising the bay for birth year coins I came across this. For my education according to Krause the individual coins are listed
as proof-like so I take these are not proof strikes but on the same lines as the proof-like Canadian sets correct?
The seller's images are not too great but I'd like to know what other members opinions are on these.

Thanks!
1961 Maundy Set

    My only concern would be PVC in those old plastic holders.

    You make an excellent point!

    Actually from what I can see they look like they are in the original sealed
    packaging from the mint at least that what it seems but the pics
    are too small.

    Should technically be Prooflike, NOT proof. There are some proofs in this series of usual regnal proof years but also from Victoria where true proof sets go quite high - I recall a Spink sale some 8 years ago with the 1882 proof maundy set going for 600 plus the juice - probably fair bit higher now!

    Well, just Love coins, period.
