First piece of gold that isn't a sovereign courtesy of @Domo Really pleased with it.

Just in from @Numistacker, thank you 😍
 

A tube of Britannia's,. Now how to display, individually nope, scattered nope, tower yes. No coins were harmed in this dangerous photo shoot and thanks to @Tn21 for doing a deal.

 

2003 Silver Proof 1oz $1 Kangaroo - "Jirrah-Watty"   Featuring a design by acclaimed Aboriginal artist Ray Thomas of the Gunnai people in Gippsland, Victoria, the coin depicts "Jirrah-Watty" – the Big Kangaroo – in full flight. With bold muscular line-work underscoring the animal’s power and predominance, a delicate finish applied to the background envelopes the horizon in a shimmering heat haze, along with the distant silhouettes of another stalwart of the outback, the grass tree. Ray Thomas spent many years researching his Gunnai people’s myths, legends, designs and body marks. The patterned line-work and motifs are characteristic of the indigenous peoples throughout South-East Australia.   The corresponding "frostie" has a raised polished image with frosted background and was crafted by Vladimir Gottwald, Engraver at the Royal Australian Mint   This proof kangaroo is, in my opinion, the clear number one of the entire Skippy collection. A truly and outstandingly beautiful coin - I hope it goes some way towards mitigation regarding my previous post.   I hereby close the case for the defence and appeal to the jury of my peers.

Delighted to receive this in the post this morning - the Graded coin Prize Draw.
Many thanks to @ChrisSilver and the mystery forum member who very kindly donated this prize and has a beautiful handwriting for sure!
 

This arrived today...😊 Will send it off for grading. Fingers crossed it achieves a PF70!

Today I recieved the following thanks to @ChrisSilver and @5huggy through the Daft Competition.
Brilliant!!!!
Thank you to everyone involved!

Thanks to @Jamesd and @StackSellRepeat  

Arrived today. 
(Oh yes! It’s) The Great Pretender! 😂, as well as a beautiful condition Chile 100 Pesos and a nice Proof Sovereign Three Coin Set. 
Three different compositions of Gold, .986; .9167 & .900 loveliness.
At first glance, its improbable that the 4 Ducats is the lightest of these big boys and the Cien Pesos the heaviest 🙃
 

Thank you @AndrewSL76 !
 
 

Today for a gift I got these shiny little loaves that need no introduction. So beautiful in person and heavier than anything that size has the right to be. Works of true art. ❤️

Received over the last couple of weeks but I just got back from work yesterday.
Awesome Chronos from @Panda6Pack

A mixed splurge of beauty from @Tn21

And back from grading

Ok got this today.... Why do I have a sweet spot for anything QB related..... 🙂

Got these yesterday. Not bought any of these before but I do love them. Thanks @richatthecroft

Received these beauties today:
a 1995 Russian .900 15.55g fine gold 100 rubles commemorating Alexander Nevsky (so cool to think of this coin as a store of value during the Russian economic upheavals of the 1990s)
 
a 1989 Portuguese .917 edit: 22g fine gold 100 escudos commemorating the discovery of the Azores (Portugal issued a series of precious metal commemorative coins around this time which are quite in demand as collectors items)
 

2010 RAM 1oz Silver BU Kangaroo at Sunset   My collection of all twelve 1oz silver Proof and BU Sunset and Outback Kangaroos is completed with this flawless argentine example, the details adroitly captured in some of his finest work by photographic aficionado @CadmiumGreen.   I am still enthralled by the timeless beauty and simplicity of the design by engraver Wojciech Pietranik, whose monogram can be seen above the Fabulous 15 Privy mark.   Many thanks for the goodwill, encouragement and kind words proffered by all the following during completion of this set: @trp, @jultorsk, @47Ag79Au78Pt @richatthecroft, @JonCL, @Pete. @ChrisSilver, @Peterheat, @StackSellRepeat. @TheBeast. @SilverMike, @Frenchie, @TheShinyStuff, @HGr, @Zhorro, @StackerCollector, @UnoWho, @SILVERFINGER, @damok666, @Gildeon, @Bullionaire, @ZigZag. @daca, @Jamesd, @Robda1986, @Abyss, @Happypanda88, @Marko, @LawrenceChard and @GavinDevon
