This is a swift way of getting a near-complete set of Australia's pre-decimal coins in one go.
Despite the fact it has been more 50 years since the change to decimal currency here in Australia, the popularity of the complete sets of Australian pre-decimal coins in average condition remains strong.
There's something about owning a complete set of coins that spans a number of decades - you appreciate just how hard it would have been to put together when you see them all in one place.
The Supreme albums are great because they allow you to view both sides of each coin fairly easily. It's also pretty straightforward to remove a coin or two to check it out more closely.
The images show the type of set you'll receive - as you can see, the coins are in average circulated condition - they’re all used, but look great in the album and are problem free.
Most of the King George V coins grade Very Good - Fine, the King George VI coins are either side of Very Fine, while the Elizabeth II coins grade from good VF to good EF.
