Always nice returning home after the postman has been this morning 👍👌

Some more Mexican silver today. 
5 precolombinas which are extremely hard to come by and also a couple of 2oz libs in my quest to complete a 2oz libertad date run 

arrived today courtesy of @James32 
nice little nugget to go with her twin... 

Today I received this Mexico Veinte Peso. Its a restrike year, but purchased for spot +5% so happy with the deal. Also, one of my favorite designs...the Aztek calendar is so beautifully intricate.

Libertad's are a dangerous collection 🤣 more of an obsession really 

Postman dropped this off for me today with a mintage of 10k a lovely looking 1991 proof libertad 

Love these low-mintage coins from the Perth Mint - hopefully this time a I get a 70 from NGC.

Some more £5 Silver Proof’s.  The Royal Birth coins are Bergdahl designed and a nice design.  
The Sapphire Jubilee is a duplicate- but also a lovely design as is the Century of the House of Windsor.
And taking the rough with the smooth in this batch- a design monstrosity of the Royal Wedding.

My Lion of england arrived today.
Cap Open, and I think I definitely fingered it trying to correct it.
It's going back and I will be cancelling my continuation order.
I have had enough of open capsules.
No pussy jokes. I already thought about it, and thought better of it!

Just spent 20 minutes opening ALL of the boxes, what a pain!
I didn't receive them all today, but the 10oz portrait yesterday, and the 5oz portrait a few days back.
The set finally complete.
Now to put them all back in the boxes....

Started to put together a little treasure chest. Might need to upgrade soon, tho!
 
 

Libertad Joys and a Mexican Gold Colossus Libertad Proof 2018 & 2019 Silver Sets - outrageously lucky to get these - courtesy of@Darr3nG 2019 Silver 4oz+ Libertad Coinbar - Rarissimo - another great find c/o@DHD2020 Walnut Veneer Libertad Box - Restoration Project - from@morezone Monolithic Gold Dos Pesos - "size of that bugger" - always a pleasure@Domo  

🤔 Not really! $100 an ounce is too much for a private mint. $50 per ounce would be more reasonable for this particular release.

2nd 5oz gold turned up today some quick photos, capsule is bitty so will clean off with a cloth take some time with this coin and drop some more cleaner photos later.

Great Victorian engineering, simple, but effective!

No sorry I bought it just for the cameo it’s hard for me to picture but it really pops.  🤩

Nowhere near as stunning as @platinreloaded but I’m getting there🙃

2 OZ masterpiece collection 3G by the EIC. Not a absolute stunner comparing to the RM coin, but should also become a nice series.

And lastly, closing out the year with the star…2021 2 oz Silver Gothic Crown Quartered Arms Proof!



Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

Hello there guys - I’m new to this forum, even if i somtimes have been reading as visitor in the background. I am in the late 50`s and live in Germany. Since a couple years i am trying to get some precious metal into my stock for the retirement. Mostly silver as some say it is the Gold of the small people. My Focus has been on Bullion, but since COVID dropped into our live the spot for Bullion got insane. I hope to learn more about precious metals and might share experience with you guys. Of course i also hope i can trade,sell or buy from time to time some peaces of coins which i still miss in my collection.
That`s it for now - hope i can participate and wish you all a nice sunday.

1985 full sov in PF70 with the obverse facing up. 1st year the Maklouf portrait made an appearance. Waiting for 1 more to come back from grading and I’ll have the complete set of QE2 portraits

My 57 sov arrived. Quite chuffed with the quality of it.
 
 

Sent in to NGC 8 coins from the recent 2021 morgan and peace dollar commemorative sets and got 6 ms70s and 2 ms69s, best part was all three of these came back 70s.
