Hi All,
Just saw this on the coin forum on Numisbid
http://www.coin-forum.com/Valuation%20Requests/2006%20Silver%20Proof%20Set/last

Can anyone with this set confirm if this is different ?

There is a mention of this set in Maccas 2013 edition Page 117.
It was put to auction in 2008 and passed in.

I have absolutely NO idea, I'm just parroting what I read in Macca's:angel:

I can't seem to find any archived catalogues from Downies. I dare say if it was passed in, it was probably way too expensive.
Wonder if this other set is different and therefore the original coin is no longer unique.

Australian coin

haha that would be right I searched for pics and all were the other side

Hi Fr45h3R, yes, this is a known error.

A friend of mine has a set. Not sure how much it'd be worth now, as he bought it at issue price. Also not sure how many exist, but it appears to be rare. See image attached.

As far as I am aware there is only one of these.
It may be the fact that it IS a NCLT coin that makes it un-noteworthy, I am unsure of why it got passed in .
Maybe the seller had unreasonable expectations for the auction, It is anyone's guess :angel:
