...In Victorian times you could buy a Maundy Set from the mint; these are
probably the only 'sets' in the true sense of the word. As has been said,
others including modern ones, are 'put together' A recent exception is 2002,
when they were made available for the Golden Jubilee of the Queen's Accession -

After campaigning on a promise to restructure the failed NAFTA deal, BO went
to Canada and stated the agreement would not be changed. How can you tell when
BO is lying? His lips are moving! Oh yeah - the "peace" candidate just sent 17,
000 more soldiers to die in Afghanistan. Change we can believe in - yeah right!

Possible amazing find - 7 new
-----------------------------
I purchased a 1971 uncirculated mint set off of eBay, and when it arrived, I
noticed that the Lincoln cent in the plastic pack from the Denver mint was
missing its mint mark! The other 4 coins had theirs, so I started scouring the
'net for any references to this happening before, and I couldn't find any;
plenty of 'no-S' proof cents, but no - Fri, Feb 20 2009 6:12 am

Bullion values of UK coins - 6 new
----------------------------------
I have added a page to my website on the Values of UK coins which lists
reasonably recent bullion values for gold and silver coins. Of course, many
such coins have a value exceeding their bullion value, but some, and I am
thinking of worn sovereigns and pre-1920 silver in particular, have listed
values which may be less than the current bullion price, especially as - Fri,
