    I got _extremely_ lucky and got one of these sets for _a lot_ less than what i should have paid. The first genuine deal I've ever had at an auction.
    I had been eyeing this up for ages now.
    United Nations 1995 Silver Proof 36 coin set (with all COA's - this alone is very rare).
    There were only 1394 of these sets ever made, most of them got broken up from the sets, though some of the coins exist separate (in their own individual presentation cases).
    Some really notable coins in here, the lowest mintage Irish coin (ever), Moroccan 200 dirhams, Argentine Peso, Norwegian 50 Kroner, Latvia 1 Lat, Uruguay $200, Oman 1 Rial, GB £2
    The list goes on. Estimated Value is about 1000 quid, I guess. Maybe more.
     
    Has anybody got one of these?
     
     
    I placed a bid, thinking I'd just lose, but if you're not in, you can't win.
    Imagine my delight when I got the email that i'd won it.

    (This set is not my one in the picture, but the same deal.)

    2010 Mexico 1/2 oz Gold Libertad proof. Somewhat low mintage at 600.

    Also, cool to get a coin representative of a historic Mexico landmark one has visited.

    Pity. It's a mess up like that that has long lasting effects, especially for those who are buying it on the basis that it's a proof. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference without you pointing that out.
     
    It is a masterpiece, though.

    @Numistacker or anybody in the know might be able to tell me if this is worth grading? Would NCS be the type of thing you could do on this coin?
     
    The history of these coins is very interesting.  I'm not sure of the base metal of these coins, I think they might be brass (gunmoney).

    I got this 1995 1 Punt (Pound) Coin. There were an estimated 750 of these minted, in their own presentation boxes.
    Another 2000 were made as part of a set of coins (with many other coutries).
     
    This is the rarest pound coin in existence (Irish), and is the size of a crown.
    Truly fascinating piece. I believe that most people didn't know of it's existence until about the year 2000.
     
    Got it for 150 euro, and most guides say it's worth about 350. Probably more value when graded.
