craigy Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) guy is asking a lot of money for this set https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GR-BRIT-George-VI-1937-AR-AE-Nickel-Brass-15Pc-Proof-Set-PCGS-PR64-PR66/173275070541?hash=item2857ffc04d:g:rqUAAOSw~O1a1gVU guess its cause all the coins are slabbed ?, but not all the silvers are cameo and I have noticed this in other 1937 sets, seems the crown, half crown, florin, and sixpence can be found in cameo but not the shillings and silver 3d (not the maundy 3d), and varying levels of cameo in the bronze which could just be new dies ??? as we know the royal mint are now chucking out bullion and BU coins with varying levels of cameo, is the what they did with the proof sets from 37 onwards ? has anyone ever seen a full cameo 37 set or owned one ?

Is it me missing something very obvious, or is there a photo of only one of the 15 coins in that link? Quote

VickySilver Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Not a bargain basement spot....I've my own pet peeves with Atlas - the principal there can really be a b---- at times. He's also got an outrageous business model wherein he buys a bit high and then frequently triples, quadruples or worse the price on his list. I have seen some of them to be recycled in auctions at Heritage, etc. when he does not get his crazy price. 1 Quote
