2014 Horse privy & 2023 QEII Britannia and a 2023 Coronation Cypher 😊

New arrivals from @CallumHSLimited

yeah thats a stunner. I just put in an order and considered them but i bought a load of these instead

I bought a couple of these coins recently and just received them.  I think they look pretty amazing in person.  Photos of them on the net don't really do them justice. 

The background is actually a light frosting texture.  The scales on the dragon are shiny like mirrors and really pop.

Received these today amongst some other more interesting coins and collections which were part of an auction lot.

Think they're all Windsor Mint plated.

Does anyone know if there's any interest out there for this kind of stuff? I usually go straight for bullion or silver proof stuff. These just happened to be part of the lot.

I bought mine from Chards they were about £27.50 inc vat.🌞

Now available to order on Bleyer for £26.87 (ex. VAT) as single, decreasing with quantity.

Nice coin.

A Post of something Nice and a definitive guide to Importing Silver.
 
I like quirky sparkling things or Coins/Bars not available in the U.K. and occasionally Import.
Firstly- Look at the coin❤️ Worth it. Dragon Heaven.
Secondly- This is Importing SILVER from outside of the U.K. and the costs involved. Courier fees can Vary. I’ll be transparent as I’m not looking to flip a quick buck.
I bought 3 coins to meet the free delivery threshold ($300 Aus) from The Perth Mint Australia.  Cost for three- £172.91
I ordered them on the 27th Dec during their shutdown but knew they would be snapped up quick and can only find one supplier selling them in Europe for £100+ each. You would still be paying duties and fees on top from Europe. 
You cannot claim VAT back on SILVER.
Perth Mint are very thorough and update your order with tracking through FedEx. It’s an easy process. Packaging is always fantastic.
I received a message saying the VAT and handling fees are due to FedEx and have a portal link to pay £43.72.
Delivered. In my experience a 7-10 day turnaround.
Total- Coins £172.91 + all charges £43.72 equals £216.63.
Therefore 1 coin is £72.21. 
Still cheaper, better quality and more reliable than a Royal Mint Equivalent 1oz Proof of £103.50
It is legal, opens your eyes to other world mints and very satisfying you have something out of the norm. I appreciate they will possibly come to the U.K. and be cheaper but it’s always a journey and sense of satisfaction.

Thankfully not everything I received was dreadful! 
 
Probably my best single delivery of coins yet! 

New shield today in a year that I have found particularly hard to get hold of, 1887 Young Head, Sydney in this case
Not a perfect coin, but a year I feel you should grab if you see it as they come up so rarely.  Rates as scarce in Marsh with exactly 1,000,000 minted but that is split over the the shields and George and dragon and I see a LOT of the G&D.  I suspect if the split in mintage was known this would be a rare as a minimum.  The Melbourne of the same year is rated as R3 with a mintage of 1.9m over the two reverses 🤷‍♂️
 

Received today a very nice Coronation silver coin in reverse proof. Now, this and the standard proof silver 2oz make a nice pair. \
COA mentions reverse frosted with a max mintage of 1006.

Thanks, will throw them to the eBay masses and see if anything bites.

If not they could probably make pretty skipping stones.
