Couple of recent arrivals:
1. 1912 Bulgarian 20 Leva. Interestingly, the coin is dated in the Julian calendar and has both 1908 and 1912 dates on it. My pictures dont do this one justice. Its fantastic, with full lustre. Just a beautiful piece. Its courtesy of a forum member but as they didnt have a sale post, I'm not naming them here on the off-chance they wish to remain private. But its a splendid coin and they should be proud of its quality despite moving on to other collecting endeavours!
2. A simple Victoria jubilee 1/2 crown. Not a rare piece, but a really nice example of the type that I came across last week at a coin shop. As this weekend was a holiday long weekend (Victoria Day) in Canada, I felt compelled to buy it. A nice 150 year old silver piece with fantastic mint lustre on it, no cleaning.

Thanks for the info @papi1980, appreciate it! I didnt realize at first that this was a commemorative coin. So its sort of like the 1938 Albanian ones. And yeah, I would imagine that they would have found their way immediately into the hands of the wealthy/well connected people in the country.
Fascinating history!

Talk to me 😂😂

I love those type 2s. Much more eye appeal then the type 1s. Certainly one of the best bullion designs. 

Got this stunner of a coin from @BleyerBullionfor a very reasonable price.
got to be my favourite bullion design.

Some more of this stuff

Thanks to @Ryan 

Amazing coin @ryanp007 and very rare. This is a commemorative coin celebrating the Independence of Bulgaria. (22 Sept 1908). СЕПТ is abbreviation of September in Cyrillic. On the observe, you have king Ferdinand I. As you can imagine, these coins were owned predominantly by the most wealthy part of the population and I personally haven’t haven’t seen such well preserved sample..well done!
