300 gram poured silver Kit kat by Backyard Bullion. I love how chunky it is

We need a "Today I didn't receive" thread.
Was supposed to be getting my monster box delivered tomorrow by Fedex but after checking the tracking I now have:
"Shipment exception - Delay beyond our control" on Wednesday and Thursday.
Scheduled delivery date now just says "Pending" and "No scheduled delivery date available at this time"
bad

super shiny, looks like a blob of mercury.

here is the pic i took 

Looks like it’s a Krugerrand week for me. Picked these two beauties up for £105 each. He had 100 ounce silver bars too at £13.50 an ounce as well as 5kg Metalor bars same price, shame am tapped out, really good price for heft. Probably ideal for @mr-dead 

Update on my Chards order, they rang me this afternoon saying the site had not been updated and the Churchill medals are no longer available.
Should have stuck to Hatton garden metals lol.

A bit of a long winded one with a bargain at the end.
I spotted a "Centenary of Winston Churchill - This Was Their Finest Hour" Gold 2 X Medallion Set by Christopher Ironside on ebay @ £570
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/centenary-of-winston-churchills-birth-two-coin-set-21-carat-gold/183029671894?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
 
Coin details : 1 X 17.5g + 1 X 3.5g made from 900 gold (stamped on the coins too) so fine weight = 18.9g, however as they are produced outside the UK they are listed as 18ct.
After a little searching for a price check I notice Chards had a 2 coin set and a 3 coin set listed as 18ct.
So basically got the the two sets with a fine weight of 2.66oz for a total of £1.72 over spot for the lot

1907 Full Sovereign
1980 proof half sovereign
1982 half sovereign 

A few bargains 

Monster box of 2018 Britannias.
Silver just seems stupidly cheap at the moment so loading up.

Recived from USA !
1866 shieldback sovereign NGC MS63 
1879s shieldback sovereign NGC MS62 (top grade for now..)
Happy with them  

El Gordo [the big fat one].

A nice old Engelhard cast bar. The style and italicised font of the Engelhard hallmark denotes an Australian bar. This 1kg silver bar was made at the Thomastown refinery, Victoria, Australia. The bar must predate 1988 as this is when Deak took over the refinery.

Happy 2-year stacking anniversary to me!! I have not missed a month, and the spreadsheet now says 1395oz silver and 1.5oz gold.
Added 38oz today, mainly Perth Mint stuff. I do love their coins, and will continue to stack their stuff heavily going forward. I was recently inspecting some of my the coins I have acquired, and IMO the Perth Mint stuff is by some margin the best. The designs are classy, I love the frosted finish on the Lunar coins, and all they come in plastic cases which offers another layer of protection. None of them have any blemishes whatsoever. 
The other coins I love are Libertads, which imo are classically beautiful, but I have far fewer Libertads than I do Lunars and Kooks.
