Heirlooms

Cheers to @DuncanWylieWilsonfor a few coins
2 rocking horse crowns, a Morgan dollar and a Victoria Crown. 
A few new banknotes to the collection of ermmm... Big banknotes? 
1 mil lari from Georgia, Bolívares from Venezuela, Pengo from Hungary and 5 mil Drama from Greece. 

Finally got one of these. Found it in the Harmers Auction yesterday. A gold proof coin created by the Royal Mint to mark the Ghana being declared a republic. 15000 minted however many have been melted down so not many of them left

As some of you may have noticed, I was recently after the special silver 2016 Canadian Maple Leaf with the Mark V tank privy mark (50k mintage) that commemorated 100 years of the tank. 
As is typical, you wait ages for one and then four come along at once  

Not exactly precious metals, but not particularly cheap either!
A pair of 1.5-inch solid metal cubes.
The tungsten one weighs exactly 1kg, which feels unearthly heavy for something so small (unless you happen to have a 1kg gold bar!). In contrast, the aluminium (sorry, aloominum) cube feels unfathomably light and it's hard to believe it's not hollow.

Lots of tiny things from Germany!
I'm such a sucker for buying the same thing in different packaging  

Another crown for the collection 🙂

Today I received... Thanks @PatrickV

 

Today I also received... it's been like Christmas for me this morning! 
I've been waiting for this for a while, months and months infact.
 

A few new bits and pieces this week. Love the Royal arms design 

Was able to pick up some coins from an antique shop while on holiday. These two are particularly nice in my opinion

Thanks @SilverMike, lovely Sovereign. 

Today’s additions through the door,
some more of my favourite constitutional USA silver courtesy of @DuncanWylieWilson once again,
and a immaculate 2017 privy marked sovereign with thanks to @Goldfinga

Beautiful thick boy from @SilverMike
My first piedfort!
Thickness is very cool in person.
I’m obsessed with the 2017s…
