2014 coin set cost

[Davethepitch]

Hi all

I really like the UK 2014 Proof coin set but the later sets seems more expensive than say 2005 etc

That's because the Royal MInt started selling their products exclusively and because they have hiked the prices as well, so there's no easy way to get a bargain on the second hand market. I actually collect the proof sets as they are produced, but forgot the 2014 for some reason. Mistake, as ebay sellers know its difficult to find and have themselves hiked their prices. I managed one in an auction recently for a fair bit under the ebay price, but probably still more than the RM original price. If you really want one, you either need to keep an eye on auctions, or bite the bullet and pay over the odds on ebay.
