Just found out that ‘Piedfort’ is not pronounced the way it looks!  Being a French word it’s actually ‘PEE-AY- FORE’  The ‘d’ and ‘t’ are mute. So if you want to impress the girls with your best French accent (or your favourite dealer!) ……💋👩‍🦰

That's very close, but not quite perfect.
Here is a page I wrote years ago, with a definition, translation, and pronunciation guide:

Although this page:
https://www.chards.co.uk/blog/piedfort-coins-heavyweight-coin-collecting/100
disagrees with me slightly, but I think my understanding of French, and my pronunciation is slightly better than my daughter's.
Trying to impress the girls with your best French accent does not always work...
I know...
... having tried it on German girls, Italians girls, Spanish girls, and a few others.

Congrats mucker.... Hopefully I'll be getting the results of my 2oz silver portrait soon. 🤞 I'm as lucky as you. 

Really happy with my raffle prize and the bonus badge. Thanks TSF!

A little more gold for the collection...

I had almost forgot about this but today I received back the first coin I ever sent for grading
Originally purchased from @James32
 

1957 to complete a date run of Gillicks. Nice Brit too 

Icon Mona Lisa and some capsules for my bars from @BullionMan89

Got me some 2009 onzas of my beloved mexican lady. Really in good condition and ready to get graded.

Looks like a chocolate inner gold foil wrapped coin to me 😆

might as well troll

😂

To be clear I'm not disputing the coins from this seller ( I'd need a telescope to see them) but this is my favourite krugerand post ever 😂😂

Check his profile pic lol... 
Ps, if seller is on here " get a ****ing grip"

3 Beautiful Sovereigns from Atkinsons. 2002, 2012 and 2022 editions all in excellent condition. Very pleased with my purchase 😀

Rather than faff about with the Trustly thing I just opted to pay by invoice. Order went through, pro forma invoice was in my email within minutes and I paid it by bank transfer. It wasn't a large value order which may have influenced the process in some way. 
Agree about the tracking bit, the order is still showing as under review in my account but unless I've had a relapse and dreaming about gold and silver again I've definitely received it. 

Placed a little order with Tavex to see how it would go. All pretty straightforward, next day delivery and nicely packaged. 

Got myself this 1 onza 1983 mexican lady. Those double die varieties are kinda hard to find nowadays. 

Two 3cents came today, some nice old American coinage 😆
photo seller took definitely didn’t do the small one justice 🌟 

The coloured silver proof looks quite nice!

🙂
