Very nice! I have one of those, too I do think it is a nice looking set. I picked up a stack of those a couple weeks ago. Most of the time I break sets open .. put the coins in albums, tubes or boxes. Not sure what I am going to do with them, but I think they are to nice to break open. I think I have 87 through 93 ... but have to look. Edit .. Aceskings .. I do like that commemorative gold  Edited by GR58

Thanks GR58!! Thats that last Commemorative set I bought from the mint. Seems Congress went a little nuts with the commemorative programs after that. Well, that and we had my son that year, bought a house......etc, etc, etc.

1990 bimetallic French 10-francs - this coin replaced the 1974-88 cupro-nickel-aluminium 10F (which had been extensively forged) in 1988, and was in turn replaced by the Euro in 2002. The obverse shows the 'Genie' from the top of the Bastille Column in Paris:  |

Poor lighting and failing batteries produced the following hastily taken photos:     Two different nations (and governments), same year coinage. Democracy was restored on 30 December 1989 and the People's Republic of Poland (Polska Rzeczpospolita Ludowa [PRL]) was replaced by the Third Republic of Poland (III Rzeczpospolita Polska [III RP]); additionally the Polish Eagle regained its crown which had been lost after WWII (the earliest usage dating to the denars of Boles#322;aw I around 1000 AD). The only thing that makes sense is that coinage was being struck for 1990 in 1989, which produced coinage for a nation that no longer existed (PRL in 1990). The 10,000 z#322;otych is a 10 year commemorative for the creation of Solidarno#347;#263; (Solidarity) which led to the re-creation of an truly independent Polish state. And, it also demonstrates a little inflation that occurred in Soviet-bloc nations. (Poland redenominated by a factor of 10,000 in 1995, and since it wasn't redeemed at the Bank of Poland by December 2010, it is now demonetized) Side note: the title of this thread still has a typo. "How for back can we go". The "for" and not "far" bothers me greatly. |

The first year and the Key to the Kookaburra series at only 105,000 mintage. Left it in the original trapezoidal mint capsule, probably a mistake. Now I am starting to look forward to how it is going to tone.  |
