European Gold Standard Five-Coin Set

Before World War I, five European countries struck gold coins to compete with each other for world trade. The war drained their treasuries of gold, and they never struck these coins again! Most were later melted, but we found a small number of five-coin gold sets for you. Includes a Swiss Helvetica, French Rooster, German 10 Marks, British Sovereign and a Russian Five Roubles—all dated before 1914!
