nothing very new
but I love 😍my pre 33 Indian Head gold coin collection growing coin by coin next to modern stuff like Pandas, Darth Vader and so on ...

and on...

 
 
 

Been hunting for a while and finally took the plunge and bought this 1918 15 Rupees which arrived today. 

A good time to be investing in Gothic Florins and, where you can, Crowns!! This is a lovely example! 

Hello, dear silver friends,
I am very much in love with these old silver bars from Heraeus, they are patinated by hand, so it is an antique finish and timelessly beautiful. I received these yesterdays after a long wait.
Greetings from Maxe  

Absolutely love this little 1887 shilling. Some nice netherlands coins too!

Decent George IV sovereign, i’m in two minds about it, but shall be graded and i’ll see.

Just been informed it achieved an MS63 grade by NGC.  Pretty happy with that.  Will post a few pics when I get it back.

Today I received a tube of Goddess Europa from @GreatBritishBullion. I normally only stack Britannia for a store of wealth and collect others for my collection being from the UK. But I recently bought the Eagle, Maple, Philharmonics, Kangaroo and Krugerrand and I thought I would buy the low premium tube to give me a feel for the Goddess Europa which is a cheap and low cost stacker for storing wealth from a private mint. They were a good variety at a good price. I must say I do love the look and feel and symbolism of this inspirational bullion from a new and small mint though my favourite are still the classical and traditional ones!

My brother collected my post while I was away, and he had this beauty waiting for me today.

Saw your Nepal gold coin on numistackers channel 🤠

Alderney’s 2021 Gothic Crown. The precursor to the next Royal Mint Great Engravers (due in November 2021).

This one is a belter 
Can't beat world gold 

Another 1500g of this stuff 🤤

A bit of fun.  

For the next large TSF prize draw to advertise and bring awareness of the forum, which will be in around a month or two. Should we double the prize and have 2x 5oz silver bars up for grabs, 2 different winners each winning a 5oz silver bar. If you think we should then like this post. 

If this post gets 100+ likes we will give away 2x 5oz silver bars. (I have set this target deliberately low so that it is easily obtainable)

If this post reaches 200+ likes, we will add a small bonus  

38,000 tonnes in 24hrs into a Loomis Vault 😳
 
Of course it couldn’t possibly have had anything to do with this spike down..... Nothing to see here folks.

Back in May the LBMA made an "accounting error" that overstated its silver by 3,863 tonnes.  NOW the CME/COMEX have made an "accounting error" of 38,000 tonnes (!) of silver:
 

 

Hi!
I purchased 2 Britannia gold coins recently, both minted in the same year. I'm relatively new to this so I was surprised to see they differed quite significantly in colour given that they're 'pure' gold. Each coin came from different bullion dealers - 2 of the most respected here in the UK so I don't for a moment doubt their authenticity. I am however curious as to why they look so different so any thoughts/insights would be much appreciated!
It's way more noticeable in real life but in the following 2 photographs, the coins switch positions when they're flipped over. One is more gold-like, and they other more reflective/silvery.
Yellow coin = 31.14 grams
Paler silvery/metallic coin = 31.25 grams
 
 

Some nice silver bits!

Come today few more bits of lovely silver for my stack. , got to say the goddess europa coins are a lot nicer when you see them in hand 😍

Lovely little 1887 proof sixpence

45 Oz's of silver from morezone.

Fractional golden lunars. 

My first-ever coins tube + 2 very nice coins. 

A new addition to the family, a Whippet puppy named Mink, much to the dismay of our existing Whippet, Fox who is taking his time to adjust.
Anyway, I’ve taken time off work this week to help out settling in the new addition and it’s given me time to snap a photo or two.
Today arrived the 10 coin Silver 1/4oz Reverse Frosted Beasts set.  After regretfully flipping all my Gold and Silver Beasts over the last several years, this set is a lovely momento of the series.
The latter two photos depict the meeting of the clan- the tiny Beasts alongside the Silver Proof 5oz, 2oz & 1oz Completer’s and the Proof 1oz Gold.  
 
All you Beast fans, enjoy! 😉
