I hope this is permitted on this forum? Recently arrived back to SA from travelling overseas for a number of years I have been unfortunate enough within a week of my return to be the subject of a large theft from my bedroom at a guest house in Johannesburg. No insurance of course. I carried my coins separate to the boxes so I am hoping someone may be offered the bare coins and be suspicious that they are stolen. Perhaps not value substantial to some but major to me and I am devastated even more by the fact that I saved for a long time to be able to get these and I loved them beyond the monetary value. I know many coin collectors will understand what I mean. These are the sets that were stolen: 1995 PROTEA RAILWAYS OPEN 1/10 OZ IN BLUE BAG 1995 1/10 TH OZ GOLD RAILWAYS IN RED BOX 2002 WILD CATS OF AFRICA PRESTIGE SET - THE CHEETAH ½, ¼, 1/10TH 2005 R25 ALBERT LUTHULI GOLD 1 OZ 2005 LUTHULI 1/10TH OZ GOLD 2005 STAR OF AFRICA KRUGER RAND SET 4 COINS SPECIAL 2006 PROTEA TUTU 1/10TH OZ 2006 PROTEA TUTU 1/10 TH OZ 2006 TUTU 1/10 TH OZ GOLD 2007 PROTEA PROOF SET - MANDELA AND DE KLERK 5 COIN SET 2007 WORLD HERITAGE SITE VREDEFOT DOME ¼ OZ 2007 DE KLERK 1/10TH OZ GOLD 2007 MANDELA 1/10 OZ GOLD 2008 PRESTIGE SET KRUGERRAND 2008 WORLD HERITAGE SET VREDEFORT ¼ OZ COIN AND MEDALLION SPECIAL 2008 PRESTIGE SET NATURA GIANTS OF AFRICA If anyone has a lead I would very much appreciate being alerted. The police have been called but of course nothing has happened and I doubt that it will be taken much further since it was a theft from a house without a breakin.

Restaurant Day (8 yrs) On Restaurant Day anyone can set up a restaurant, café or a bar for a day. It can be anywhere: at your home, at the office, on a street corner, in your garden or inner courtyard, at a park, oron the beach – only your imagination is the limit. The quirkier the concept of your restaurant is, the better it attracts people. However oddities aren’t necessary. Good food and drinks at a nice place are enough – the most important is to create a restaurant that you’d like to visit yourself. After all, the idea of Restaurant Day is to have fun, share different restaurant experiences with other people and enjoy the our living environment together.

Life of a legend Protea series
Cold Sea replied to GROOVIE COINS's topic in Coins and Notes (for the Numismatist)
This is true in all instances, with marketing the key creating labels and crazes of all sorts. With a slack economy such as we have at the moment, collectables seems to take a back seat, even with many the low priced items around. But I guess it also shows that the international market is not as big in our collectables as we would like to believe. For instance yesterday a copy of Rev Dower's book, in very good condition and with the Griqua Note in place, sold for $473 .00 (+-R6 600.00) including commission & VAT. I thought this was a very good price. The SA Mint thinking is marketing the Mandela series knowing that it is an item that sits well with tourism and locals, all the while "exaggerating the significance". From a business point of view, what's wrong with that. The irony here is that a socialist leaning government is putting capitalism to good use. The Mint issues local coinage with designs that promote the political landscape of the day on order from the Reserve Bank. As a manufacturer then, is it their place to actively promote past issues.
