Description from the seller
Franklin Mint Excalibur Backgammon 1986 – complete – game medals in original packaging (OPV)
Description
For sale is the extraordinary “Excalibur” Backgammon set from Franklin Mint, dating from 1986, in an excellent preserved condition.
The set is complete: all 30 game medals, all dice, both dice cups, and the other gaming accessories are present. Notably, the condition of the game medals is exceptional: all 30 medals are still individually sealed in their original packaging and have never been used for playing.
The elaborately designed game medals depict famous figures from the Arthurian and Excalibur legend. The two players’ sides are rendered differently – in gold- and silver-colored designs. The corresponding original cards with information about the depicted characters are also included.
The original Franklin Mint papers are also preserved and part of the offer.
The large backgammon board is high-quality and finely crafted. When closed, it measures approximately 55 × 43 × 7 cm. Despite its age of about 40 years, the entire set is in an exceptionally well-kept condition. It has been stored with great care for many years.
Included are:
* Franklin Mint “Excalibur” Backgammon board
* all 30 game medals – still in their original packaging
* both dice cups
* all dice that belong to the game
* character cards for the figures
* original papers from Franklin Mint
The game itself is therefore completely preserved. Regarding the historical original papers, it is explicitly stated only that the depicted or present original documents are included with the delivery; no statement is made about which documents Franklin Mint originally delivered in total.
Due to its age, there may be minor storage or age-related marks. The exact condition is documented in the photos; these are part of the description.
An extraordinary collectible for Franklin Mint collectors, backgammon enthusiasts, and collectors around the Arthurian/Excalibur legend. In particular, the complete set of 30 still-originally-sealed game medals sets this specimen apart from many used sets offered today.
Private sale from long-term private ownership.
