Bought this set to grade the panda and sell the rest but it would be actually quite nice to leave it like it is. Nice display

Bought and received at auction recently - some old gold and silver. Sorry for the pics - as lots of the silver looks like gold in the late night
Two nice Kennedy half dollars - from 1964 D and 1965 (so the 64 more interesting (and more silver) than the 65...and toned).  
A really nice Mexican 1896 8 reales - the cap and rays design (my first). 
Finally got myself an original Sydney mint design gold sovereign - this one from 1870, and an Angel 20 FF for under £200.  Been buying the modern proof commem versions from Perth Mint recently - but needed an old one. Nice to see @Jester with that rarer 1866 half just earlier?. The Angel 20 francs was for less than any UK dealers, so every now and then bullion bargains can be found, even after the hammer fees  ?
Lots of old threepences (love the 1922) and retro 1970s - 1990s UK silver, including some of the rarer Piedfort 50ps .., celebrating various EU membership anniversaries. Hopefully these will be regarded as even more valuable now ...given Brexit! To close the story the Mint should really be getting a contest going for an exit coin.... 

1989 Five Sovereign BU & 1897 Victoria Diamond Jubilee Medal (the 93g version!)
 
Not my images, i'll take some when they are in hand

1820 Full Sov NGC AU58 
another coin coming from the U.S.

2017 Gold Proof Libertad's arrived... Off to NGC next week... (1/10, 1/4, & 1/2oz)

Another 2 bars arrived today, 4 more to go.
Sequential serials on the RMC bars.
Looking more gold in this pic than silver like the last one
 
 
 

A bit of gold porn, the bars are starting to arrive (from Canada).
Due to shipping insurance limits they ship each bar individually and 2 packages at a time.
I have another 2 bars due for delivery tomorrow then another 4 bars to come soon.
Would be cool if I end up with 9 different mints
Also got a peli case so when all the bars arrive I can pop out the foam squares to fit the bars correctly.
 

Five (Quintuple) Sovereigns, 1902 + 1887 !
excuse the pictures, handheld macro and bit blurry



 
 

YH Shield back, Somali Elephant, the Phoenix and the new 1/10th 2018 BU lunar year of the dog.

1827 full sov 

Monday I received a nice GA bar from a Instagram member..

I bought three of these 1 oz Czech lions they have a mintage of 9500.
 
 

A few recent pick-ups.  I'm only needing the 1918 Sov from Melbourne and Perth to complete the 1918 set...

And I couldn't pass up picking up the 1917 Ottawa Sov with a mintage of 58,875

New vs old.

Old: $2 1/2, $10, $20

New: 1/4oz, 1/2oz

Nothing special to most here but chuffed with my first PM purchase, a 2017 full sovereign.  Hopefully the first of many!

My very first Sovereign! The 2017 Strike on the Day! Let it be the start of a great collection!  

I received my order from France Mint (Monnaie de Paris) today. The face value silver coins are "normal" but I would like to share this heavy medal (350 grams, 85% copper + 15% zinc). Using a one-euro coin as scale reference of this 75mm medal. It depicts the grand Forbidden City Palace of Beijing, with a modern touch of bicycles and rickshaw on the reverse side.

 

These 1/4 ozs arrived the other day.

Jubilee Prussian Double Crown or 20 Goldmark and Sovereign from the same year. 
Nephew and Uncle one year before becoming opponents in The Great War. 
(The 20 Goldmark is thinner and slightly larger but contains less weight and gold than the sovereign)
 

1 x Bullion full sovereign and 3 bullion half sovereigns.
