Delivered today in exquisite condition, a delightful,  46.24 gram bar of what can only be described as "stuff dreams are made of".
From a super forum member 1817Karl. A big "THANK YOU" my friend.
Oh, and the two coins were nice as well.
 

Strictly speaking more of 'this last month, or so, i received....' post!
I've just got back from a nice sunny break in Lisbon where i 'stumbled' accross "Numismatica Diamantino" which had a pretty impressive collection of coins from throughout Portugal's currency history. I could've stayed there all day looking through the books of individual coins from decades gone by, but a glare from both my parents and girlfriend called a halt to proceedings (who i'd somehow managed to convince i was merely 'popping in' as we 'passed by' as it was definitely 'on the route'.......!)

I couldn't get my grubby mitts on a Ponte Salazar (the other Lisbon bridge) whilst i was out there, but since ordered one from eBay to add to the collection. Coincidentally there were 10 for sale here yesterday, which completely blew my mind as i spent hours looking for the right one online for the right price and i could've had 10 from TSF if i was quick enough!
Also received 6 of these fantastic 2019 1oz Royal Coat of Arms bullion coins from our very own @StackSellRepeat. I can't get enough of these. I see a tube of these coming on!

My first 16 Britannia's kickstarting the 'My First Tube' accomplishment!

2020 Royal Mint Lunar Rat. 

And last but by no means least, 6 of the East India Trading Company trade dollars (2 x US, British & Chinese) courtesy of our own @Stackerads and SilverTrader; and 1 solitary Spade Guinea with thanks to @richatthecroft. 
Not to everyone's taste for a 'presentation box coin' i know, but i find something very endearing with these coins (especially, of course, the Spade Guinea). I found myself wanting to pick them up when i first got them and thought a CoinGallery case would be the ideal answer to help scratch the silver itch! Looking forward to the Japanese and French dollars and perhaps another Guinea to fill the gaps! 

Think it was 1897,I've got 6 of them,that I bought on here a wee while ago.
