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  

6 rungs - about 5 feet - though rarely top step used.
Will they improve your pics?  Well that's the elusive thing that we all search for isn't it....the next gadget to aid photographers - though I would avoid anything that said "Photographers Step-Ladders" as they will cost an arm and a leg

Great photos although to better display the silver coin in the pics, rest the insert holding the coin on the hinge part of the case, it'll show the coin off better.
Photographing the cheaper cases issued by the RM isn't the easiest thing to do as the hinges on the box don't open fully to 90 degrees. It's just a suggestion....

Good tip - am always looking for more ways to present the coins although for these box shots I think it's more about showing how they look in packaging supplied - raising that tray makes it look a bit padded which may cause confusion for potential buyer.  I frequently get on stepladders or prop the coin up from behind in order to show more of it if I think it's needed - but as we also display top views of reverse and obverse not sure it's really needed.  I will give it a try though.  Thanks.

My 1oz Gold arrived this morning, the forum seems to have been down a lot lately so just catching up on the thread on this one... 

I was on the site by chance when it was released, took a chance on this as I really liked the design but havn't collected any others in the series. 



 

If the PO accept the package you are insured, my PO don't always ask what's in the parcel but just make sure you are covered for the insured amount would be my advice....
As an added, photograph the package with address label and make sure the package is secure, ie use lots of tape. I always message/post a picture of the package to any TSF buyer and confirm the tracking.

Same with the 1oz silver too!

Thanks to @BleyerBullion for the super quick delivery of the 10 oz White Horse. Only ordered yesterday afternoon so excellent. Also nice to get a couple of little freebies and a hand written note, great to give a purchase that personal touch.
Just one to go in the collection now and the box is starting to get very heavy, good job its one of Alun's and can take the strain 😀

The postie popped this through my letterbox yesterday.
 

I quite liked the Canute and this one is clearly meant to be in the same vein.
A miss I feel, it's hideous. Agree with ILSIRD, looks like an alien, and what's that strange phallic thing appearing in shot at 7 o'clock? (my wife spotted this BTW😁)

I've 3 of the proofs and they look great, 1 is graded PF69 and for the life of me i can't see why it didn't make a 70. Would you upload a pic of the enameled when they come back, are they going to be like the 2020 EIC Una gilded or am i totally missing the point of what enameling means....

I'm curious to know, can you tell why there is a difference?

30th Birthday today and the Mrs pulls this one out the bag...
1991 the year I was born.
My first proof double.
Girl done good 🙌
