    In continuation to my UK proof set collection (see http://www.cointalk.com/t196946/), here is the 2013 UK Premium Proof Set. It is my Christmas present that, unfortunately, came a tad late.

    Ooops, that's very true. Sorry!

    ps: I've spent the summer of 1994 in Dorset btw - it's pretty and there are many lovely cottages!

    Don't worry, you'll get it! I ordered two products on Dec 12 (the premium proof set and the commemorative proof set). I got the commemorative set on Dec 29th but only received the premium proof set yesterday (Jan 4th). Maybe because the sets have to 'swim' across the Atlantic - so it takes a while to get to me ;)
