Hi Everybody,
I have been collecting Aust decimal currency uncirculated coin sts for a number of years, and one of the sets I am missing is the 2012 uncirculated set (BOSTON).
According to Renniks Coin Book, this exists but I have never seen one advertised on E-Bay or any coin shop web.
could anybody supply a photo of the set so that it is easier to identify.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Terry

What value does the Rennick's book give for the set?
It may be so rare that no sets ever come on the open market. I cannot find any record of it anywhere.

It's against the rules to solicit for items on the forums.
But you can set up a saved search and be notified if anyone lists one.

Thank you very much.
This is the first time I have ever used a forum and wasn't aware of any restrictions.
My sincere apologies.

Hi again,
According to Rennicks there were 2500 sets issued (Berlin only 1500 issued).
The book value is the same as the Berlin set @ $95.00 and according to this edition of Rennicks, the issue cost was $40.00.
I even sent emails to Renniks & the Royal Australian Mint asking for a photo, but they couldn't help.
The Berlin issue is reasonably available on E-Bay, but as I mentioned, I have never seen the Boston set advertised anywhere and I am beginning to believe that my search will be fruitless.
Many thanks for your interest in my problem.
