Sealand Orca Whale 6-Coin RARE TRIAL Set: MINTAGE: 99 Six-Coin-Set 1994 Orca Whale "Commemorative" Trial Strikes! Only 99 Sets Produced!* Minted In Three Metals Coins In This Set Listed in Krause's 4th Ed. Of Unusual World Coins as: TS1, TS2, TS3, TS4, TS5 & TS6. The Front Of Each Coin Boasts The Sealand Coat of Arms Obverse Or Orca Killer Whale In Three Different Metals Common Reverse To All Six Trial Coins (Each Reverse Notes The Metal It Is Struck In) Only 99 Sets Produced* This is a flawless six-coin set of trial strikes produced for the Principality of Sealand's 1994 Orca Whale Half Dollar and Pure Silver Dollar! This six-coin set is comprised of two coins showing the obverse and reverse of the Sealand Fifty cent piece and four coins of the obverse and reverse of the Sealand Silver Dollar. The Fifty cent trials are struck in the adopted cupro-nickel alloy while the Silver dollar coin is struck in silver and golden-bronze versions. Each side of the normal Sealand coin is mated and struck with a special reverse die that states it is a Trial Strike and identifies the metal it is struck in (see the example of the bronze reverse shown above). They are "cameo" proof strikes; the backgrounds are perfect reflective "blazing-mirrors" (which show up jet-black in scans) and the designs are frosty white (which, of course show up white in scans). The contrast between the mirror-like backgrounds and design is stunning! The silver pieces weigh exactly one ounce and are struck in pure .999 silver while the cupro-nickel and golden-bronze issues weigh about 26 grams each. All are 39 mm in diameter which is a bit larger than a U.S. silver dollar. Add this rare set to your collection today! NOTE: Please review these images above to see the awesome quality and beauty of the designs. These photographs were taken professionally for our catalog. The photos for the set offered above were from an old scanner and do not capture the true essence of the coins. However, the coins in the set are all just as nice as the example shown here in our professionally shot image! *Mintage of the golden-bronze version of the dollar is 250 pieces. Mintage of the cupro-nickel half dollars and silver dollars are 99 each. Only 99 complete sets are possible! Who Is Ken Potter?
