Another exemplary purchase from the legend that is @ilovesilverireallydo 😄
Absolutely stunning carded 2002 full sovereign. The blemish top right of coin is on the wrapper not the coin

2009 Royal Mint UK Silver £1 BU
In 2009 the Royal Mint produced the first of five consecutive annual silver BU one pound coins. Issued in a flimsy card box and an absurdly pliable capsule with the structural rigidity of clingfilm, the coin was an immediate and comprehensive sales debacle.   In focusing the coin on a somewhat questionable target-market of those on a quest for an imaginative 30th birthday present, we can only assume that RM advertising team must surely have been "moved along" pretty sharpish. If the evidence is anything to go by, they were, to a man, redeployed to the Quality Control Department.   According to their own website, out of a total maximum mintage of 50,000  just a derisory 359 were actually issued. I await confirmation of these figures from the mint. As my requests were only sent earlier this month, I expect  to be apprised in the New Year.   The happy result is that the mint's most poorly packaged coin, with the most ill-conceived marketing, has turned out to be the rarest silver definitive coin ever produced by the Royal Mint.    The coin itself is a good clean strike and will make an excellent new addition to my Ag One Pound collection - which has an updated target total of 80 designs.This is the first example I have ever seen and I was delighted to snaffle it for a bargain-basement £25. Huzzah!   I still need the 2010 and 2012 silver BU £1 coins, if anyone can help. They were both sold in "Baby", "18th Birthday" and "21st Birthday" sets.  



 
 

Got a 2014  1/4 proof sov courtesy of @AndrewSL76

The full Germania Mint Fafnir collection thanks to @Panda6Pack, again he has managed to source amazing pieces for me. This has to be the most awesome set I own, truly stunning, will need to practice my picture taking as @Jamesd does the 2oz version a lot more justice (further up the page) than my piss poor pics!

More bullion grade Sovereigns from 2013 which I might just flip a few, as a decent price for a quick sale. Thinking of doing a bullion sovereigns date run, as date runs seem to have captured my kids interest.
Plus a tube of 2017 Brits from @arshimo2012who promised me some later this week, when fast finger @Tn21had beat to some he put up earlier by about a minute.

Couldent help it. After watching @BackyardBullion vid a few hundred times lol gotta be my favourite In the collection. Just wow
Massive thanks to @Longjohnsilverstacker for making this happen
