[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 323328, member: 1695"] Personally I think commemorative coin sets produced by the mint would hold more value over the years than commercially produced "coin sets" from newspapers. Every man and his dog seems to be producing Anzac memorabilia every year to make a buck. As an example, take a look at how many items are up for sale at your local post office for Anzac day. Probably better off trying to source the actual war medals as collectables, even if you can only afford one at a time, say off ebay. They hold real history, are tied to an actual soldier who fought in the war, hence are unique one off historic items. Just be aware that many are replicas, the reals ones will list the soldier's name, rank and regiment and will possibly have paperwork supplied with them. :) [/QUOTE]
