OK here's one (to get back to Egypt). Certainly later than 1939, but pretty...

 

I just opened the same year Japanese proof set that I had purchased for the same price. First time I purchased any Japanese coin set. Very nice indeed. I also like the beautiful leather case. It reminds me of the Canadian proof-like and proof sets of the 1970s and 1980s. All quality from our Japanese numismatic friends.

 

A couple of new arrivals yesterday for my Victoria type set. 1st is a 1885 half crown.

 

1884 Gothic florin

 

1900 Old head sixpence

 

1897 Old head florin

 

Picked up this proof set today. I really wanted a proof large penny. But as I was looking I found the whole set was only about $3 more than a penny by itself. So now I have all of them Not silver but still looks awesome!

 

Nice looking proof set.

 

Last Post for today. Austrian Proof Set.

 

Nice Proof set.

 

The 1970 British proof set is always a beauty to look at. It is also the first proof set I had ever purchased at age 10.

 

See what I started You can get some very nice sets for little outlay. I have a 1980 Great Britain on the way. It doesn't have the crown or shilling however. You set is very Nice!

 

I have been wanting a 2 bit or 4 bit coin cut from an original piece of eight for a very long time. I passed one up in a lfea market several years ago and have really wanted one ever since (It wasnt a great one). I had a hard time finding one for sale online even though ive heard they arent that uncommon so I settled on a counterstamped one even though it was much more expensive then what just an ordinary clipped bit coin would cost. I think its pretty cool and has alot of history behind it. Ill still be looking for one not counterstamped but until I find one I will be able to admire this piece in hand.

 

Here is my newest, i did get it identified thanks to THCoins. It is a bull and horseman Jital of Muizz is Mu'izz al-din Muhammad Bin Sam, an Afghan warlord who conquered part of India. Years minted are supposedly 1173-1203 A.D.

 

Great Britain Sovereign 1888-M (Melbourne, Australia)

Not in real good shape but must have had a history.

 

An upgrade for my British type set.

 

Mailman was nice to me today. Brought a lot.

This is one I've always wanted. The price was right so I settled on a circulated coin. A few marks but I'm OK with that for the price. I love the helmet.

1901 German States-Prussia 5 Mark
