Does anyone know anything about “Al Schneider” coin sets? Are they good fit and well made?

I know that Todd Lassen has some...
I don't have any so I can't give a personal review, but they sure would be nice to have (collectors wise and coin working wise).

Hi, Harris:
I work a lot with coin sets. Thanks to my failing eyes, I would like to use SOME larger gaff sets. I know Todd Lassen has a great looking S/C/B in large coins (made by Al Schneider. That is what I am thinking about and looking at. Bob |

Bob, as I understand it, the C/S/B set is made by Todd. The Chinese coin in the set, however, is something that Al Schneider had made a long while back. Todd was able to find a bunch of them. They are beautiful, but I think Todd might have bought up all that remain.
If all that's correct, then you already have the one source for "Al Schneider coin sets"...Todd Lassen. Al Schnieder also put out "Hugs and Kisses" a long time ago, but I don't think he sells them anymore. Check out his website.

Cp,
Mr Schneider has a very ambitious website: http://www.worldmagiccenter.com some of the familiar Schneider logic, cleverness, and originality is available there. Well worth a visit.

Hey Guys,
The videos are fun, but PLEASE READ the Essays! Real good thinking here! I cannot stess enough that you read all of his thinking on the essays. If you do you will know why his $10.00 phamphlet now sells for 40-70 dollars when they come up on ebay. Kirk Grodske |
