This bar with hallmarking is stunning. This is not a superlative, false flattery.
It is just a fact. This is the Sheffield bar but more beautiful. My mistake - much more beautiful. 
 

@Silverhunter I've had an order for a 5oz one from a friend on here for a while, just haven't had to time to do it yet, as soon as things settle down I'll be doing that. As the the size if it was to go much bigger I'd need to make a new model.
@RichRock Thank you!

@GoldenAtlantis you'll make me blush?

Thanks. Needless to say my father loved it. @GoldBenj is a very talented craftsman and top bloke!

i got a 1kilo PAMP Suisse Fortuna bar from Atkinsons. I thought about it for a bit and then got the rest.

It was bad, but not too bad if that makes sense. I really fancied it and it looked in good condition. Christmas 2017 may be cancelled however...

Beautifully crafted piece by @GoldBenj and just in time to give to my better half.

Yup.
And I'm a soppy old tart. I picked this up from Arshi. Perfect.
 

Danny the Alchemist.... he turned 1010101 into .916  

2012 & 2013 China Lunar 1/10 Gold & 1 oz Silver Commemorative Coin Sets.
Looks like they changed from the wooden style to the plastic style box after the dragon.
 

Picked up a couple more of the 20g silver Rabbit Yuan Baos because I quite like them.
Also picked up some COAs for the bullion Gold Panda sets just for completeness.  I don't quite understand how their mintage on the COA works.  I thought it was based on the max number of possible sets based on the coin with the lowest mintage of any given year.  2011 says 71k sets despite 200k as the lowest mintage coin.  Must be the maximum number of COA sets that they will offer out which is a bit weird given that the other ones seem to be based on max possible full sets. Odd.

Yes, I know...but hey...thanks @arshimo2012
 

Some recent pick ups, a pair of 1.oz gold 2007 pandas and a 2008. Also some other pandas and a pair of Rwandan roosters.
