    Looking so wonderful this coin. 
    One small issue that is not on the capsule, looks like a little piece of dust or something, I am no expert but is this the kind of thing that conservation with a coin grader might help with?

    Otherwise, I could not be happier, it looks wonderful and has so much going for it as a coin. 




    I was a little concerned about the rim of the coin on the Queens side above 2020, but upon closer look on the 4k video It looks fine

    4K video shot, the light was kind!
    Its only a 14GB video file!
    So it will take a while to upload and process on YouTube but from experience I think something should be ready for publishing this evening (around 8pm)

    You can submit for grading for this, but I suspect they would not charge you for it. All conservation submissions are processed where the experts believe it will make a difference. I mentioned earlier that I submitted a half Sov with a juicy finger print for conservation and they returned me a PR70DCAM with only the grading fee taken. Perhaps I got lucky!!
    Just to note if you have multiple coins to grade, you will need a form for each process and type of coin etc. Each form has a handling fee (NGC) so bear in mind these additional costs......

    I would just be so paranoid about opening the capsule and more dust getting on the coin though!
    Having a dust free room in a regular house is basically impossible and I would fear I would just make it worse if I tried to get rid of this little spec on my coin

    Ugh, the lighting is so awful here today, I cannot believe I am complaining about the glaring sunlight - but it don't make it good for filming!
    Livestream in about 15 minutes 
    Maybe have to wait until tomorrow for the 4k video for the better light, I will see how it looks.

    Oh we will, I saw your photos of yours 😞 
    The unboxing will be on my phone camera, not the best quality but live for posterity.
    Afterwards I will be doing a very close up look with the 4k camera and publishing a video today - so hopefully that will show any imperfections there might be!

    Postman arrived this morning, I was waiting for the knock but he put a letter through the door and left.

    I went downstairs, opened my front door, nothing.
    Went back upstairs, checked tracking, said delivered and signed for. 
    I quickly went for my trainers, I was about to chase him up the street, I looked again and my parcel was tucked up in a corner of the porch behind a pipe. I couldn’t believe he would put it there without knocking the door. It’s a small parcel and You’d really have to look hard to find it...
    I may sound like a suspicious, pessimistic A-hole, but it’s not hard to work out where the parcels are from as they have a return address on them..
    Am I totally wrong to worry about these things? ( it was only a 2oz silver 😂)

    I got a call from my account manager first thing this morning saying he'd been able to secure me the 2 and 5oz silver and one of the gold (is it just an 1oz, it was crazy expensive?!!) and, with my balance taken into account, I am able to take them all on rolling credit
     
    Then I woke up, and have just spent all day trying to keep the debt collectors from my door for an unpaid £78 gas bill.
    I really should avoid this forum sometimes...

    I feel so horrible for you - I hope its just a case of working their way through the dispatches and they will have another wave tomorrow. 
    In terms of strategies for these coins, its going to make one hell of an interesting series for our YouTube channel. 
    I have just rung up a few dealers and the best buy price was £2000 for the 2 oz silver. 
    A very nice return on £255 for sure but Mrs BYB (aka "the power that be") has suggested we get it graded and make a video series called something along the lines of, "The life and ownership of a Three Graces Silver"
