<p>[QUOTE="sonlarson, post: 2201278, member: 15488"]This is an interesting proof set for a couple of reasons. Krause shows 2 different 9 piece proof sets for 1970. The only difference is one has the KM# 2908 50 Schilling ( 300th Anniversary-Insbruck University, Mintage, 11,700 ) and the other has the KM# 2909 50 Schilling(100th Anniversary-Birth of Dr. Karl Renner, Mintage, 286,200). This set has both for a total of 10 Coins. I suspect is was put together outside of the Austrian Mint. I have no problem with that. The other thing that got my interest was that I paid less than $17 for the set and the 2, 50 Schillings along with the 25 and 10 Schillings combine for 1.6461 ounces of silver. I paid less than melt for the set! The coins are sort of unattractive since they appear to have PVC sickness and cloudy, but I still like them.
