My 1oz silver Marlin arrived today. This coin is the most impressive I've seen with the mirror finish waves around Her Majesty's head and the style of finish surrounding the Marlin.

My part of the European Mint Order (plus some secrets from BYB, thanks mate they are awesome!) First pic as received, second with everything in capsules

Here is mine. It has original surface. Too bad for the wear on cheek or I would get it graded.
Edit...I uploaded a better image of the face. Also the date. It's hard to see the Liii
 
 
 

The florin was only introduced properly in 1849 (1848 ones are very rare). However after some criticism they changed the design; most notably including dei gratiam (or an abbreviation thereof) and changing to using Roman numerals. The absent dei gra on the 1848/9 florins led to them being colloquially referred to as "Godless florins"

That's an impressive silver ounce-age in only two years. In a wide variety of the weights? I'm with you on the level of confidence in Perth stuff (the capsuled ranges). Whereas from other mints i am always more wary when checking. The difference is - Other mints: pleasantly surprised to find no faults, Perth: genuinely surprised to find faults.

Happy 2-year stacking anniversary to me!! I have not missed a month, and the spreadsheet now says 1395oz silver and 1.5oz gold.
Added 38oz today, mainly Perth Mint stuff. I do love their coins, and will continue to stack their stuff heavily going forward. I was recently inspecting some of my the coins I have acquired, and IMO the Perth Mint stuff is by some margin the best. The designs are classy, I love the frosted finish on the Lunar coins, and all they come in plastic cases which offers another layer of protection. None of them have any blemishes whatsoever. 
The other coins I love are Libertads, which imo are classically beautiful, but I have far fewer Libertads than I do Lunars and Kooks.

But... That's brilliant! You've found a system for resisting impulse purchases... Unrelated I may have just picked up another half sovereign

A 1/4oz gold Dragon proof, to keep the set going!
 

Yes it's very special to me  and it's also my first coin.
I did know he was collecting coins but not special ones like these  after seeing it i'm hooked.

I couldn't wait for this one to arrive.  Pre-ordered from Atkinsons.  Extremely pleased to own it.
