Question
Please can you give me a valuation on a set of 1966 Rhodesian Gold coins in a box made by the South Africian Mint consisting of a £5 gold coin, £1 gold coin and a 10 shilling gold coin,
Thank you Brad

Answer
Hi Lynette, There were 2000 of these 3 piece gold coin sets issued that year for $280. It contains 1.529 ounces of gold (.1176 + .2352 + 1.1762). It may be worth about $1875 or more depending on the price of gold and amount of collector demand.

You might try Ebay.com for similar pieces for comparison and as a place to sell.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
