One of my favorite decks is the Lawrence & Cohen Illuminated - 1864.  The pips are surrounded by gold and the Ace of Spades is truly magnificent.  Others manufactured illuminated decks but this is the best.  Look for it for sale in the Potter & Potter Auction the last weekend in May.

I recently picked up the US Games reprint of a similar deck to this.  The gold in the art is incredible - this is a really lovely style of deck.  I'm guessing the average person would have found this deck expensive in their own time, back when it was initially released.
