Yes you are correct, I will fix the post. Well spotted.

Received a bunch of coins on Friday.
Firstly two small world gold coins, a 1985 1/20 gold Panda 🐼 (am putting together a date run) and a tiny 1913 1/5th Libra from Peru.  This coin has a tiny 15mm diameter so although it has a 60,000 coin mintage it’s thought that about 75% of them have been lost behind sofa cushions throughout Peru 🇵🇪. 
 
Next a group of coins to add to my world silver collection.
- China 🇨🇳 Kwangtung 1890 20 Fen, lovely EF condition.
- a very cool German East Africa 1910J 1/4 Rupee (Vg/fine). Great helmet, if I had one of these I would never take it off. 
- 1812 one Rouble from Russia 🇷🇺 (fine). Minted the year of the invasion by Napoleon.
- 1953 circulation commemorative coin (100th year anniversary of the birth of Cecil Rhodes) from Southern Rhodesia.
- lovely 1931 5 Latis (EF) from Latvia 🇱🇻. 
 

So, no decent photo's until about July then.

Might I introduce you to...
Photography Guides, Tips, Discussions & Questions - The Silver Forum

The best photos will come from a proper camera with a macro lens, but a phone with a decent camera and plenty of natural light will produce very nice images ( natural light is a must if possible)

I've taught most on here, currently my underlings @Charliemouse and @Silverlocks are doing tutorials. Very proud of them I am.

Expensive, but generally satisfied with this bar.
Bought it through an auction from a Dutch company, and they actually have quite a few other designs. Couldn't find them somewhere else.
 

Oh yes, I like the Icons of Inspiration series. So I took photos of the other 6 coins I have. Thus 8 in total, there is also the 9th: Shakespeare, but I don't have it yet.
    

Some of the recent purchases. As usual, Perth's Swan is outstanding, will buy some more in silver and will need one in gold as well.
 
 
  

Got these 2 beauties today. My 1st Gillick from @James32 and the 74 (birth year) from @Darr3nG (thanks for your patience).
 

Yes, that's RM's whole business model lately.

Coloured Lunar Dragons in cards. Haven't received the red and blue ones yet, and unfortunately missed the "base design" in 1oz, so will be looking at secondary market...
  

I have never been this happy to get a PF69UC in my life!.

Nice way to stack just over an Oz at close to spot. The bulls are my favourite 1/10 to date for sure
