GREAT BRITAIN. Complete Collection of Edward VII Maundy Sets (9 Sets), 1902-10. London Mint. Average Grade: UNCIRCULATED.
S-3985; KM-MDS158, MDS160/167. This very interesting and richly toned complete set of Edward VII Maundy sets is housed in a custom black leather red velvet lined fitted case with brass clasps. The outside and inside covers display gold inlaid inscriptions of the monarch's name and reign dates. It is unclear as to why this set was produced or whom it was manufactured by as it is not marked in any way, but was clearly done methodically and with great care. Each piece exhibits deep rich slate patina, some with multicolored hues and bold crisp devices. Some pieces do exhibit minor signs of handling as one would expect to see on a set of this nature, but nothing specific to speak of. Close personal inspection is advised and reward the diligent bidder. This nicely preserved set is destined to pique the interest of many advanced collectors who are actively seeking rare and unusual items to complement their numismatic holdings.
Ex: American Numismatic Rarities (1/2004) Lot # 1723.
Estimate: $1500 - $3000
