Well done papa, said before you collect some stunning coins, thanks for sharing your captures.
What next then? 😂

People should be starting to get used to seeing double with me by now, a different kind of double today.
The 1980 proof sovereign is from @arshimo2012, the 1982 proof from a dealer yesterday; both happily meet up with their sisters 😁

Some birds of paradise flew in, as an easy little collection, really like the detail my photos don’t ever do justice.
 
Oh and another year added to the Kook date run, said I was stopping 🙄must try(resist) harder 😂

Two 1/4 Brits accompanied with 2 Silver oz’s. That should give the game away where these came from, slowly filling my single Brits tube.

Thanks to @Tn21 enabling me to add to my gold 1/10ths collections and @arshimo2012for the Brit tubes and @DuncanWylieWilson who’s spares added to my own BBP referral tube I’m steadily filling with Silver Brits 😂

Just tiddlers again for me, 2 more gold 1/10’s I’ve been waiting patiently for from @BleyerBullion and Melissa been keeping me updated.
Last but one sovereign finally added to my sovereign date runs. Just a pair of 2007’s now if anyone has any willing to offload.

Received my latest small gold 1/10’s, 2 nice Pandas which came along with a free 1 oz Brit curtesy of the BBP referral scheme.

Few more sovereigns for the date run @trp provided this years with a generous offer and another 09 picked up.
Just missing 2007 now for my kids date runs since birth.

Nothing special just a couple more to my 1/10s collection and the sovereign date run.
Went for a slightly more expensive Somalia elephants as I liked the 2 facing each other, the Sov is plain boring I guess but the gaps get fewer in my goal.

Wasn’t going to get these but in the end, thought twice and added to my growing little gold 1/10s collections, these little Cook Islands Bounty ships from EMK (have to say their service from Germany spot on again, with no hold ups or extra VAT issues).
 

My thanks to @stackerp5 for exchanging these gold 1/10ths to add to my collections, in exchange for some Silver.
Not going to break the assay certificates, so will have to sit outside my slowly accumulating tray for each of the kids.

My favourite in the 1/10th collection just had to be a Kookaburra, these little birdies turned up earlier.
Fairly limited mintage too second year running, these could be date run missions now as I just love the silver 1 oz collections. Something about Kooks, I’ve fallen for their lure 😍

Acquired some nice gold fractional’s last few days to add to a mini 1/10s collection for each of my kids.
1/10 Brits and Maples from @ram64 arrived today, yesterday received 2 nice 1/10 Wedge tail Eagle from @ChrisSilver and just a little swap with @Dough as added to another mini 1 oz collection of all the mainstream Silver coins.
 

More modest than some but I had to join the Brumby crave

My 2 sets of Swans turned up today, so as I’ve seen a few wildlife shots, I thought I’d snap them with their friends on the lake and then a bit closer up.
Trying my best with the camera, I don’t think I’ll make a career from it 😂

04 and 06 Kooks, which means one date run completed, one slight miscalculation 🙄
Mind l’ve gone back further than I intended anyway 😂

My penguins turned up, wish I had better camera’s, like night and day

Two little Koala 07 twins all the way from the States (not the best photographer). Completed my first Koala date run (yay 🙂); just need 1 more 2008 now.
 
 
 

Continuing to add to my kids gold 1/10ths collection, 2 nice Royal Arms.
These came from @BleyerBullion (ordered yesterday - very impressed first time customer, as for packaging challenge, just getting my breath back).

£235 inc. RMSD.
Payment by bank transfer.
Thank you for looking.

My first Swiss gold coin. A 1915 10 Francs circulation coin with a mintage of 400,000 coins. A small coin with a 19mm diameter and weighing 3.2258 grams, 90% gold.

And the Perth Mint 125th proof version 
7,500 mintage
Roo,Kook and koala surrounded by golden wattle the national flower of Australia. 

Lovely pair of Gillicks came today courtesy of @arphethean . Thanks A as they very nice indeed.
