<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1382460, member: 66"]Not really. The number of recipients equals the reigning leader's age so for Obama that would be fifty men and fifty women and each would receive a quarter, dime, two nickels and five cents. There would be 100 sets of quarter, dime, nickel, and cent, 100 extra nickels and 400 extra cents. Plus a number of sets for the VIP's at the ceremony. If you dropped the quarter you could have more sets with each recipient receiving three sets of dime, nickel and cent plus two extra cents. That would mean 300 full sets and 200 extra cents. Plus the sets for the VIP's. (Do you start to get an idea why these sets are so highly desired?) In England they use 1,2,3, and 4 penny coins. That is ten pence. The queen is around 80 right now so that is 160 people each receiving 8 sets or around 1280 sets. That number doesn't go very far among collectors. And the number available will be even smaller because some people don't sell their sets. Then there are the ones that sell with the leather pouches and other ceremony items. There are on 160 possible of those.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
