I've done a little research into the process and looked at several recently promoted article as you've suggested. From what I've seen, I don't think this would pass as is. I believe that the references are alright, but I don't think that the lead is large enough, and I don't think that I have enough

I almost bought a
Victorian Maundy set once. I don't have a copy, but the Spink & Son series might have some in-depth information on Maundy coinage. They're pretty expensive, so it's probably not worth purchasing just for the Maundy information (if there is any), but you could probably borrow a
285:
Yes, I thought they did. I have an old copy of Seaby's around, that has it too. And I picked up, two days ago, a 1960s books on
English silver and gold coins that has at least some info (It is out in the car, or I'd tell you the name). That price, btw must be per coin. Maybe you could get that
297:
Actually, I meant the Spink reference didn't cost much. The new Maundy sets cost quite a bit because a limited number are minted. I don't know a lot about them, but I would think that £100 would probably be a pretty good price for a modern Maundy set. Seaby should be the same as Spink, just
150:
Oh, I understand. Why is there a limit though? It seems like great contributions would be greatly encouraged. Maybe the limit is there to prevent spamming? Anyway, it's very good work. I'm thinking of expanding the coverage of classic U.S. commemoratives. I've done a little cleaning of
170:
Because there are a limited number of reviewers ... I'm not at home right now, nothing obvious comes to mind on a good ref on early commemoratives (I think there's a paperback in the Bowers Guide Book series) but let me look at my copy of Breen. I'd love to do
210:
Nevermind the Spink book. I gave a check on their website, and it seems the book only covers values. There might be some light information in there (similar to the Red Book), but you probably won't find much good information except maybe mintage figures.
87:
useful information to add anything else without making the article redundant. I think I'll just wait for now until I come across some more reliable information to add. Nice work on your
Buffalo nickel article by the way. I noticed it was promoted to GA.-

for oddments, but a 2010 set I think I would expect to pay at least a hundred pounds. The mintages don't seem to have gone down, in fact the opposite as the Queen aged, but it is rather hard to get 1990s or 2000s issues.--
451:
342:
I'm going to nominate it then. It's no big deal to me if I have to wait two weeks, because I doubt there'll be anything else I'll want to nominate in that time. I think it has a good chance of being accepted.-
447:
418:
265:
I couldn't tell you for sure, but I'm fairly certain that Spink has mintages. They're not as expensive as I thought either. The current issue on the website seems to be only £25 (About $ 40, if I'm right).-
198:
Don't buy Maundy sets from before 1909, when they restricted distribution. Yes, I will check with them. One thing that I would love sources on are French pieforts. I can't even find French sources on

I had an opportunity to buy a complete Maundy kit once (I think from 1973, meaning 47p in coin, with the leather bags, tickets and invitations to the service, etc) and passed on it.--

It's two and a half years since that was promoted, you might want to compare against a recently promoted one although obviously there will be a difference in subject matter.--

Oh, I see. The idea is to have some review of the article prior to FAC, to catch obvious errors and because it is expected. The nickel will get there in due course.--

Ok, I asked someone by the name of "Dabomb87", who is one of the FL directors. Just out of curiousity, why didn't you go for FA on the
Buffalo nickel article?-

What you typed was probably a typo, but did you check for the spelling "piedfort"? Some
American references use "Piefort", but that's not correct.-
