The Franklin Mint Collection of Antique Car Coins (Series 1 & 2)

The item is a collection of 'Antique Car Coins' from The Franklin Mint, presented as two complete series (Series 1 and Series 2). Series 1 is explicitly labeled as a 'Complete 21-Piece Solid Bronze Set'. The collection includes two folder-style display cases, each housing a set of bronze coins. The display cases feature a dark green background with individual circular slots for each coin, allowing the 'Antique Car' designs to be visible. The coins themselves appear to be small, uniform in size and shape, and possess a consistent bronze or brass-like metallic luster. The designs on the coins, though not individually clear, depict various antique automobiles. Each series' display board is housed within a larger outer protective sleeve or box, one of which is a light cream or off-white color and the other a yellowish-tan, both bearing 'THE FRANKLIN MINT' branding and 'Collection of Antique Car Coins' titles. The cream-colored box for Series 1 provides additional text, including instructions 'TO WIN MORE PRIZES', suggesting a promotional or sweepstakes aspect linked to the collection. The overall condition appears good, with some visible wear and smudges on the outer packaging, particularly the cream-colored Series 1 box. The coins themselves show no apparent significant damage or tarnishing from the visible angle. The set likely dates from the mid to late 20th century, a period when Franklin Mint was active in producing such collectible sets. The inclusion of an 'original booklet and envelope' (as per the provided context) would significantly enhance the completeness and value of this collection, though these specific components are not directly visible in the image.
