I'm trying to find info on this set. I didn't buy it, it was given to me around 2017 and the fellow who gave it to me has since passed away.

 

 

 

 

The plain silver 1oz coin on the left is in the catalog, but the other two are not. I can't find any mention of this set in the catalog.

The middle one is a gilded silver coin. There is a gilded elephant coin in the catalog but it isn't a group of elephants in front of the lake. 

These are scans of my gilded coin:

 

 

I'm guessing I can add that to the catalogue as I can't find it.

 

The gold 1/25oz is problematic. It also isn't in the catalog and when I scanned it I found two dark spots on it which I initially thought were pieces of the foam surround from the capsule:

 

 

 

I checked the dimensions and weight.

My scale only has one decimal place and it says 1.2g. That is probably correct then

My calipers say 14.1mm diameter which fits what the card insert says (they say 14mm)

The thickness according to my calipers is 0.65mm. I don't know if that is right

 

What is unfortunate is this coin is supposed to have a nice smooth edge, but it has several dings on the edge and the black marks are not foam debris, they are something that doesn't move (but what exactly they are, I do not know!)

 

Here are some images:

 

   

   

 

 

This looks like a coin that has taken some knocks, it doesn't look proof to me! 

Is it possible that it is counterfeit?

I got the second coin added to the catalog.

But I'm not going to add the third one until I know it is legit. I'll have it checked out by a dealer in the next few weeks.
