JDRMCB Pillar of the Community United States 616 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 3:26 pm I recently acquired 28 of these various 3 coin foreign BU sets in an online Proxibid coin auction and I have spent hours researching them online and cannot find a single set like them ANYWHERE! Has anyone ever seen sets like these before? Can anyone tell me what company might have produced these? All sets are unmarked except for "Coins of (Country Name)", in addition to applicable denominations above/below coins on the front and "Printed in Canada" on the back of them. Any thoughts or opinions on their origin would be greatly appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

The plastic containers are common in the sports card world, and the cutout holes in the cardstock don't seem too refined, so probably a small time job. Pretty cool overall I think.

Sap Moderator Australia 16834 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 7:19 pm The coins all appear to be mint-state, from the 1950s or 1960s - so I'd assume they were from a Canadian-based mass-marketing coin dealership operating in the 1960s. Perhaps try getting your hands on some Canadian coin magazines from that time period and seeing who was advertising world coin mini-sets for sale? Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 7:29 pm I really like these designs. I'm also curious to know who made them. Believe I have a Korean set that was made by the same manufacturer.
