Heirlooms

Heirloom status! Achieved the P(er)F(ect)70 grade. One I will pass onto my kids and stay in the family for sure

Had the 2002 sovereign I picked up from @1stsovereign (thank you) graded and it achieved a P(er)F(ect)70 ☺️

Got this graded and achieved an MS70DPL. One of my favourite in my collection. Definitely one to keep for the long term ☺️

Last gold purchase of the year (well...😏). Thanks @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer for this 2015 Clark Effigy Sov. Off to @Numistacker you go for grading!

Managed to snag one of these beauties 😊

Thanks to @Jaconet for this one, 1998 1st year Broadley effigy sov. Off to @Numistacker this goes

One from @TheCoinCabinet auction. One of my favourite Britannia designs

Thanks to @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer for the 1974 Machin (and candy bar!). Will get this off to @Numistacker for grading

Shout out to @Silverhigh for this 2020 Oriental Border Britannia. One down 2 to go. If any is looking to let go of the 2018 or 2019 give me a shout 😊

Shout out to @1817Karl for this one

Always wanted one of these! Picked it up from the @CoinsOfTheRealmAuctions. If anyone is wanting to part with any of the earlier dates please give me a shout 😊

Just got home to this lovely coin from @Kieran95 (thank you!). This completes my special reverse pre 2012 1 oz bullion Britannia’s. Oriental border Britannia’s are next on my hit list 😊

The 2013 1oz Britannia. The 1st 999.9 (24 karat) version. For 1 year only they used the dimensions of the silver Britannia so has a larger diameter than all other 1oz Britannia’s produced. The strike isn’t amazing but one to have in the collection due to its unique size in the Britannia series

Thanks to @SilverMike for this one. These don’t come up for sale often so happy to get me hands on them. Most definitely going in the long term collection

Picked this set up from @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer. I’m currently collecting the 1oz special reverse gold Britannia years in bullion grade but when it came to the 2005 it was proving rather difficult to find. With the help of @Roy (thanks!) I discovered that there were in fact no bullion gold Britannia’s issued by the Royal Mint in 2005, just the proof and it was a special reverse design year. The 1/4 and 1/10 proofs were made available individually but the 1/2 and 1oz were only available in the set, 1439 made so I took the plunge! Think I’ll have them graded and see how they get on

This is most definitely my new favourite. Massive props to @StBeesSilver for this one. After being inspired by @Jamesd’s marvel weapons I thought it would be amazing to have a Black Panther mask boy did it exceed my expectations. Loved the pics but its even better in the flesh!

Personally I like a sealed Bairds & Co bar. English. Also better value, it’s still 1kg bullion at end of the day

I hear that. I want to get a Baird & co bar as well at some point for the same reason. Keeping this one long term so hopefully it won’t matter how much I paid 😊 

Don’t have too much silver but couldn’t resist getting one of these. Not sure if there is a nicer kilo bar out there

So nice I had to buy it twice! Thanks @Sparrowlegs4
