SHILLINGS - a Partial Type Set of Shillings

After careful consideration, I have decided to move away from collecting shillings. I enjoy these coins, but I am trying to work on too many different sets. It is time for these gorgeous coins to move on to a new home!

    Hot diggety. I like 'em all, but that QE1 and Anne really look sweet to me.



    Alas, at present I cannot act on this enthusiasm. Dang poverty. image

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

    These are all superb coins. Had I not just purchased an Anne shilling, I'd be all over that one. Truly some wonderful eye candy here Jason. Sad to see you breaking up the party of shillings!
