[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 777835, member: 39"]Welcome! In a way, we are all in that phase, and it won't come to an end. ;) Not sure because, unlike some other countries, LU and RO issued those sets but not actually "Int'l Year of Astronomy" coins. The Romanian set, for example, contains the four coins (see the images you found) but the commemorative piece is a medal. See [url]http://www.bnr.ro/Numismatics-1164.aspx#CATEG_103[/url] "Mint set encompassing the Romanian coins in circulation and a silver medal dedicated to the anniversary of the International Year of Astronomy" [i](hmm, clicking that line on the page takes me back to the BNR start page)[/i] The set from Luxembourg was issued and sold by the postal service, see [url]http://www.pt.lu/portal/lang/en/Philatelie/pid/3144[/url] That contains the stamps, plus the eight regular circulation coins. [b]Edit:[/b] This eBay seller for example [url]http://stores.ebay.de/terranumis[/url] has the Romanian set (see item number 140367300573). Please note that I don't know the seller/store and hardly ever use eBay. ;) I just had a brief look at the site ... Christian[/QUOTE]
