10oz Pamp silver bar from @vicamy
$2.5 Indian head from @Nick1368 (My first coin with any history)

A BIG shout out to a fellow forum member @1817Karl for itching my need for British AG   
 
Smooth transaction from start to finish, But definitely a very expensive purchase had to upgrade my SD box OHH & remortgage the house 😂
 
Thank You
 

 
 
 
 

Can You Say DUTCH 10 TIMES ? They Need Rehoming  

Received this one! First YH coin!

Today arrived my new 1kg Silver Millenium Dragon 2000, Lunar I coin...

The 2 oz Silverdragon was waiting for his big brother maybe for 19 years

 

Got these attractive silver French Francs in auctions over the past week or so, they are identical in size and silver content (835) as the Swiss Francs from the same period (not the 5 franc coin which is 2g smaller).

Another vintage 1oz. Mintage 5000.

Postie delivered my 6th order from GS.be my last haul of Silver before Brexit just adding to existing collections/adding some interesting new coins. Total 56 coins this final haul takes me to just over 2,000 oz Silver.

I went back to Leicester to visit the family home this weekend and went to the only coin shop I could find. Picked up some US half dollars for the stack. My uncle had finished a book on our family tree, he traced us in England back to 1727.  This has now made me want to collect British coins on key dates for the family members.  I bought my first crown, one of many to come.

Today I received a very special 1898 Sovereign. It’s special because at the start of the last century my Grandad and his school mates in Mid Wales were all gifted a Sovereign each by David Davies of Llandinam(still waiting for confirmation of which one as there were several in the same family).  
My rough maths work it out to be a weeks wage at the time! Can you imagine the local lord, lady or modern equivalent going on to the local primary and doing that now!? 
More updates to follow when I get more info. 

These beauties arrived today from USA, heres what they're like inside

I am back collecting.
I am building my 1887 collection again. And I bought a bunch of Britania's [not shown] and a few US coins.    
The Florin I will get graded. The Double Florin is cleaned. But I am looking for a Gothic Florin graded, if anyone has one.
 

Picked up some slabs from NGC this week, nice trip down to the smoke and NGC handy for Euston/KIng's Cross😊
Took a few pics before they went to storage.
