    eBay is a crazy place. Bought this graded PF69 1988 1/4 oz proof Britannia for £25 less than I sold a 2014 bullion 1/4 oz Britannia for the day after.

    Today I received...two of the 10oz QB Lions. I literally had to sift through hundreds of sold out websites until I found one that had one in stock, after contacting the company and asking if they could send me pictures of the one they had in stock (checking for milk spots), they found they had another one! Bad inventory management turned into a lucky day for me! Excited to add these to my collection.

    motorbikez got a reaction from KeithSilver in Coin definitions as per Perth Mint & others   
    Here are Perth Mint's definition of Proofs Bu's and Specimen coins,I've added a few coins to hopefully clarify things,the proofs are all on the left of the photos
     
     
    Proof Coin
    The very highest quality collectable coin produced by The Perth Mint.  Featuring a proof finish comprising a highly-polished table with frosted and/or coloured design elements.
    Bullion Coin
    A mass produced coin primarily aimed at precious metal investors. Finished with shiny design elements on a frosted table.

    Specimen Coin
    A collectable coin akin to a bullion coin with a frosted table, but also featuring one or more special numismatic treatments, including colour, gilding, antiquing, or the insertion of gems.
     
    2oz lunar 2  snake  proof and BU
     

     
    Same coins showing obverse
     

     
    1oz Lunar 2 mouse proof and Bu
     

     
    Same coins showing obverse
     

     
    1/2 oz lunar 1 rabbit proof and Bu

    RAM's interpretations of proof and Bu,s also known as UNC/uncirculated.
     
    Proof
    A carefully struck coin using special dies with either a mirror‑like or matt finish. These coins are especially struck and the term is not used to describe a well‑preserved circulating coin. Proof is a method of manufacture, not a condition or grade.
      Uncirculated (UNC)
    Uncirculated coins are manufactured in much the same way as circulated coins except for the following:
    More attention and time is given to the preparation of the die surface finish, The coins are struck with greater pressure than the circulating coins to improve the sharpness of the design. More care and attention is applied at each step in the coining process to minimise damage, consequently a much lower production rate of about 30,000 coins per press per day is achieved. Uncirculated coins are packaged individually into plastic sleeves, presentation folders or occasionally presentation cases.  
    1oz 2000 proof and Bu from RAM
     

     
    Same coins obverse
     

     
    I hope this helps clarify things.
