I bought these from a local auction house and although a little worn they’re great examples of late Victoria Crowns.

Which, ironically, was the coin that planted the ‘seed’ of coin collecting and PM’s for me. Since then it’s been 20+ years since I’ve owned one of these.

I do love crowns! I carry an 1896 crown in my pocket every day as a bit of a good luck/fondling coin

Wow! That's a hell of a find!

I'm not sure why CPM coins seem to be surrounded by suspicion, but I have no complaints - I got a 1g gold bar for only ~£3 above spot 😂

How long did it take to come thru? 

I ordered on the 25th August, but then there was a bank holdiday weekend between ordering and arrival.

Mine arrived today, all looks good! Got to admit that I was worried for a little while after reading about them online, but they did come through for me.

I've just ordered their 1g gold Brexit bar for £49, less than £3 over spot - let's see what I end up with!
