My Collection Of International Birth Year Sets

@polarboy: Very nice collection! I enjoyed having a look.

I'm not aware of a definitive online list of all sets from around the world, but here are a few other countries that I know issued uncirculated (U), specimen (S) and/or proof (P) sets in 1975 - I'm sure there are others! (It's a start! ):

- Bahamas (P. FM)
- Barbados (P, FM)
- Belize (P, FM)
- British Virgin Islands (P, FM)
- Cayman Islands (P, RC M)
- Cook Islands (P. FM)
- Jamaica (P, FM) + (U, FM) + (S, FM)
- Liberia (P, USM)
- Panama (P. FM)
- Papua New Guinea (P, FM)
- Philippines (P, FM)
- Singapore (P, SIM) + (U, SIM)
- South Africa (P, SAM)
- Trinidad & Tobago (P. FM)
- United States (P, USM) + (U, USM) - Coins are dual-dated "1776-1976" but were struck in 1975 for the sets

FM = Franklin Mint
RC M = Royal Canadian Mint
SAM = South Africa Mint
SIM = Singapore Mint
USM = United States Mint

polarboy - Very nice collection, congrats!

So the collection has grown and here are sets from places that begin with the letter I (just a coincidence I got a few I places at roughly the same time)

ICELAND





ISLE OF MAN







ISRAEL







ITALY






If anybody thinks they have anything they would like to sell that would fit my collection please feel free to pm me.

Very nice set you've put together! I never thought about doing something like that. That might be something nice I could put together for my teenage grandson who's just beginning to show a bit of interest in my collection.

Looking beautiful!

Update: the thread inspired me to start collecting Birthyear Sets as well. In my case: 1973.

Am I allowed to hijack this thread?

I think you've been ripped with the San Marino set. I think the silver coin is missing and there appears to be a cut on the pocket containing the label. This is common practice for the silver coin to be removed and the set minus silver coin sold as if it's a complete set.
