Here are some of my newest additions: 1763 George III Maundy 3 Pence (Picture of the reverse is a bit blurry; it was the best I could do.) 1834 William IV 6 Pence 1871 Victoria 4 Pence 1878 Victoria Third Farthing (This is my first acquisition of a fractional farthing, its rather intriguing. Also, the dusty looking area on the neck and below the chin is on the outside of the coin.) 1896 Victoria One Shilling         |

Yes, there were days when even lowest denomination needed to be fractionalized!
Nice Maundies! (That's what I'm after at the moment.)

That's that sort of stuff I have been into for many years, so that makes us kindred spirits.
My son has a complete type set of shillings from Charles 11 to Elizabeth 11, except the Nothumberland and Dorien & Magens types, from F to Unc.
I have done the same thing with half crowns and florins, but only from 1816, again F to Unc.

When you say "a complete set" you mean every year of issue or just every type?

Naw, just a type set collector! I apologise if I may have caused too much excitement. I am only a type set collector as well.
Can't afford to do any more that, when I collect all coins, all cultures all centuries, ancient to modern. It's just the British coins have much better representation in such a collection.

That's fine, sel, pages of same looking coins wouldn't excite me much. I'm collecting types myself.
