You find that people stand outside the church after the service and attempt to buy the coins from the people who have just received them, which is rather sad.

Of course, they're far less interested in incomplete sets. And I got mine several weeks after the service (they sent some for everyone in the choir) .

I could dig them out and take some photos when I go home next month. If anyone is interested.
