    This was given to me as a Christmas gift from Santa in 1972. These where struck at my local (Ottawa Mint) in 71 to Commerate the 2500th Anniversary of founding of Persia by Cyrus the Great. These are dealers photos. My coins are still in protective plastic trays/ thus are perfect/ not toned/ oxidized/ would be PROOF 70 if graded. Thank God I had enough common sense back when I was a teenager not to have removed them from trays. Set sold for $261.00 Canadian back then!

    Hmm! I seem to be lacking in 1971 coinage. This thread is quite an eye opener, I love it.

    Coins from Bermuda that came back from a family visit while I was in the first grade. My first time on a plane, a Pan Am 707 from New York.
