We're f*ckin loaded  mate and pay a lacky  to take them  

Only jokes, we learn off @Charliemouse

Hi, I saw this going cheap and couldn't resist, I love a ship in a coin, best wishes all

Thanks to @theman73 for todays little silver haul and a shot of the treasure chest for @Aldebaran

@Petra It's mainly the special reverse I like although I have got two standard doubles,  I love the doubles great size for seeing the beauty of the coin.
 

Just received this beauty from @Thomast
 

Came in today
Im starting a mini date run from 1860 to 1870 with graded half pennies. If you have any around ms65 for sale, please let me know. Thanks 

Freshly dropped off by Fedex. Another nice Maklouf.

A nice double 1989 from @Thomast Many thanks

Just a classic!  Lovely coin

3 coins turned up today... rather pleased with them! 
1st up - an offering from the Kiwi’s to Her Majesty on her birthday...  
Also a 1902 Crown and 2002 half sov.

Thanks for sharing... waiting on mine.  Looks fantastic! 

🇮🇲 Isle of Man 95th Birthday Sov arrived this morning - so thought I’d share...  
 

Got mine today - its an absolute cracker!  

Really happy today with my new editions from @1stsovereign, A 1937 George VI and a 1989.
 

Over the moon to get my hands on the Maundy Money gold set. Stunning coins

I’m 46 now and started collecting coins aged 6 when I was handed an 1886 Morgan.  It was an incredible thing to hold and my father still reminds me how he swapped it for a dollar bill with a waitress when on holiday.  
Fast forward 4 decades and I’ve a couple of coins kicking about… and it’s been a journey that has never been about anything other than collecting.  My profile says stacker… I am in someways… but I’m not going to collect and stack scrap.  I have proof coins… because they are important… but they are nowhere near as interesting as the ones that have been slid across a bar 🤠 for tequila or dropped by a pirate! 🏴‍☠️ 
I think the last few weeks have focussed me more on the bullion value of my two sovereigns, my old Morgan, and the bag of Peseta’s as oppose to the numismatic interest and history which someone eluded to the other evening.
Tonight - I’m reminding myself that the collecting journey is more interesting and important than the bullion weight.  I’m also inspired by the knowledge on this forum - understanding that after 40 years - I know not enough, but I’m doing ok if I wanted to melt and make a few bars.   But which melt pot would I throw the old Racketeers nickel in?  
£60.58 a gram…. Absolutely bonkers! 
Cheers 🥂
