It's a 6-coin silver set.
Cerbera100 Posted February 17, 2012 Author Posted February 17, 2012 I may be wrong, but did they not strike more crowns than sets?Either way, its a 6-coin proof set, and a separate crown on its own which incidently, I'l upgrading to aUnc! There is also a VF/aEF 1928 crown up for grabs! Pics below...1927 Obv1927 Rev1928 Obv1928 RevSet without flashSet with flashSet crownSet crown and 3dSet 2/6 and 6dSet florin and shillingSet case

Except for the 'with flash' one. I'd suggest you use the flash in future, it seems to come out pretty well?

I'll get some proper shots in the (hopefully!) daylight when I get home this evening.I didnt realise that the crown was only in the set... thats a whole lot of broken up sets around then!
