1977 Uncirculated Mint Coin Set Sherwoods QEII Silver Jubilee
Obverse: Elizabeth II to right, legend around
Reverse: Circulating coin designs including commemorative 50 cent
This incredibly popular set marks the Queen's visit to Australia in 1977.
Australia has been producing mint-year sets ever since decimal currency was introduced in 1966.
The coins in mint sets are just the same as those we see in circulation but are in perfect condition.
The 1977 set includes the fifty-cent coin that commemorates the Silver Jubilee (25th anniversary) of Elizabeth II's coronation - a hugely popular event at the time.
Many of the 1970 mint sets prepared by the RAM have spotted or tarnished coins in them - RAM sets that include each coin still in pristine condition command a significant premium.
This set was put together by Sherwoods - a major numismatic dealer in Victoria. Each of the coins in the set was hand-selected and is in far better condition than most of the RAM sets that still exist.
That is why the (privately issued) Sherwood sets now bring more than the original sets from the same year.
