During the ‘Great Silver Forum “Outage” of 2018’, I received a, still sealed, 2007 Gold Sovereign Proof from eBay auction.

Hello. It was a big coin week for me this week. Had ten come back from PCGS (have them submitted via a dealer) and received a number of others I bought a while back. Here are two of the half sovereigns (bought these graded already), the British 1905 and South Africa 1923 proofs. 

May was a good month added these two to my collection. 

After over a decade of stacking I finally have a strategy! Sovereigns and 10oz Beasts only as I think these will be easier to sell when required.
Anyway, 2 x 10oz dragons arrived today thanks to the @BackyardBullion group order which compliment the rest of my 10oz Beast collection - shown next to a 2oz Bull for perspective.
 

Finally tracked down a 1904 Half Sov to complete my Edward, London Mint date run.
It's the lowest mintage of the lot and has proved the most difficult to find at a reasonable price.
 

1893 $10 Gold Liberty BU, although I'd say AU due to the dings.. Good price overall...

Picked these up from the Post Office today .

Received the last bit of items while I was away...gold! 
From auction I won a 1869 Young Victoria Shield Sovereign, Die 33 (AU58) courtesy@BackyardBullion (I am beginning to think that he has all of my earnings from the overseas trip)...
 
Also received a 1987 1/4 oz gold Britannia proof. Regrettably no COA and box, but pristine condition before I put it in a proper  capsule.
 

And there is still more! Added a 1937 Crown (PF 63) to add into the George VI gold collection...

Let’s round out the silver received with some dragons...
The new 2018 Australia 1 oz Silver Proof Dragon & Phoenix complimented with, 
Three (3) 2018 Great Britain 1 oz Silver Two Dragons BU

A few QB pickups : 13 bullion silver Clarences and a few 1/4 gold Bullion QBs: looking for a nice Clarence and a better Unicorn than my current ones to send in for grading....in pursuit of the elusive MS70s.  
As many have commented already - the Clarence Bull silver coins are nice in the hand - none of the sharp ragged edges of the earlier designs in the series.  I will put 3 into deep capsules and keep 10 in a tube for storage.  Will decide what to do once the 10x designs are in the bag.  Also a couple of slabbed Clarences for fellow collectors here on the Forum. 

Not surprises here , panda always after pandas , but this time , they are going to try out ncs with grade protection through @Numistacker,let’s wait and see what they will come out with 

I waited very long for these. The 2018 Chiwoo is really a very nice design.

Today I finally received my forum bars. Nice to finally hold them. Postage took 1,5 weeks to the Netherlands, so that's good enough

 

Today I received 2oz Queens Beast lion from Kamikaze.
 

Had recently bought  a large batch of pre47 British 50% Coins. 
Went through it and found these beauties. My shitty phone camera does not do these coins any justice. 


 
That Florin is a belter!
