Those are super nice De Orc!!

 

Thanks been off coins for a while now but slowly getting back into it, this is a little side collection so to speak LOL

 

those are really really nice!!! I love cooper coins, much more if they are like yours!

 

they did annual sets for most of the channel islands for much of the 1980s and 90s. I don't remember when they stopped, but the royal mint website doesn't mention them anymore.

 

Eric I only collect them up until Decimalization but I know that the Islands now produce there own coins and I would think that you could still buy year sets

 

Seems they do not issue such sets every year though. Some info regarding Jersey can be found here:
http://www.gov.je/TreasuryResources/Jersey+Currency/default.htm
Not sure about Guernsey; they do refer to the same company as Jersey though when it comes to collector coins ...

Well, gentlemans, i like coins of Jersey and Guernsey Islands. It rather rare coins in Russia, but i have several coins of these islands. I am glad to show them...
