Please help.1976 Mint Set. Mint error.Possible Value

[d_ronne 10]

Hi can anyone please help. I have a 1976 Mint set. The Springbuck appears to be what is referred to as a "pregnant Springbuck. Can anyone possibly confirm this from the photo.This Rand coin also has other blemishes. See photos. (The lines on the photo's indicate where the blemishes are). This is still a sealed mint set. If it is a "pregnant Springbuck" what would the possible value be. Thanks Dan

Hi Dan,

The blemishes I think are where the plastic pocket touches the coins surface, I have a few very similar, possibly a low grade plastic was used for the pockets!

Re the pregnant Springbok, from memory they have fetched over one thousand Rand on BoB in the past. Your R1 coin still being sealed is a good sign......as there have been quite a few forgeries in the marketplace!

David

Not a pregnant springbok. Only struck in 1967 no other year. Sorry
