    That's a pretty set.

    Pretty 5¥ piece, too.

    I just bought this, so there is once again one Far Eastern coin in my collection. :)

    Thanks.

    The little rectangular Japanese gold pieces are fun. The common Meiji types like this are not frightfully expensive, either, for gold coins. (These actually have more silver than gold content.)

    They do look a little silly in a slab.

    (Recent buy from @jwitten the toned gold guy, right here on CoinTalk.)

    I don't have a 2011 but I do have the 1991 Proof set. It is one of my favorite sets in my World Proof and Mint set collection. Here's the whole set
