<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 523074, member: 39&quot;]LOL indeed. The Italian mint charges €43 for the FDC set (BU - 20,000 sets), and €85 for the proof set (5,000 sets): <a href="http://www.zecca.ipzs.it/cgi-free/db2www/cata/zecca.mac/vis_artic?cod_tipol=1&amp;cod_colle=000&amp;cod_artic=225" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.zecca.ipzs.it/cgi-free/db2www/cata/zecca.mac/vis_artic?cod_tipol=1&amp;cod_colle=000&amp;cod_artic=225" rel="nofollow">http://www.zecca.ipzs.it/cgi-free/db2www/cata/zecca.mac/vis_artic?cod_tipol=1&amp;cod_colle=000&amp;cod_artic=225</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The latter - listed but not depicted at the IPZS site - is sold out though, so you would have to buy it elsewhere. For example, the dealer in Germany that I mentioned before charges €95 (about £80-85): <a href="http://www.emuenzen.de/verkauf/kat88land316.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.emuenzen.de/verkauf/kat88land316.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.emuenzen.de/verkauf/kat88land316.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Scroll down to the bottom to view the proof set (I just post the link as an example - if a moderator thinks this is too &quot;promotional&quot;, feel free to remove the URL.) In my opinion those sets are nice but too costly, even at &quot;only&quot; €85 or €95. Now why the Italian €2 commems cannot be had in proof - good question ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
