    I posted this only as an item of interest to Maundy collectors so don't despair. The set is still
    available on the Mark Rasmussen site for just 28,750 pounds! image

    Is this set really worth this? I guess with sales like the Milennia it may well be, I just can not "feel" it.
    Love that Milled British (1830-1960)
    Well, just Love coins, period.

    I did not know Mark had a site... I guess I need to look for it.

    Believe it is something like "www.rascoins.com or .co.uk". Mostly high ticket items but some less so.

    Does anyone have the techinical info on this set? Why was it produced in gold and how many were made? Hadn't seen the gold before but I've never focussed much on the series.

    Coronation commerative, just as with Victoria 1838 and likely less than five sets. Statistics on mintage in those days were not too great, and I do not have a number.

    << <i>Coronation commerative, just as with Victoria 1838 and likely less than five sets. Statistics on mintage in those days were not too great, and I do not have a number. >>




    I'm gonna' go out on a limb here: with a very, very low mintage, gold, and (assuming) a high state of preservation, these things are likely to appreciate in value over the coming years. It seems a lot of rare/scarce British (and other countries) coinage is still really undervalued, even with the run-up in prices these last five years or so.

    I think as more collectors leave US coins due to the wildly insane market, they will buy into these rarities, thus pushing the market skyward (to say nothing of the hard core collectors in other countries vying for these).

    (edit: spelling)

    I'll be happy if these Lightsiders simply pay insane moon money for regular issue Victorian condition rarities. image

    Wybrit alone will probably buy Hyde Park with his proceeds.

    For this price I'd like to see the obverse please. If it's original and hairline free it's hot.
