A 2014 1/4 oz gold Britannia from BBP and a 22.2 gram silver proof French lunar monkey from France.
The Britannia was from the best value section where you could either get a 22ct or 24ct. Took a gamble and got my 24ct. This saved over £20 compared to requesting a 2014 coin, result.

My Australian Mint Kangaroo Series Proofs finally are up to date with the arrival of the 2016 Series "Change".

The Rare Orange Case 1oz Kookaburra Proof Series 2000-2005 Completed!

A cardboard tube of 2015 2 oz Libertads.
 

1/20 1992 Mint Sealed Gold Libertad because it has a different design to current years.
1/10 1988 Gold Nugget for the date run.  Just missing the 1989 now.
Somaliland Year of the Sheep.

1/2 kilo mouse arrived yesterday a bruiser & extremely rare.

Size comparison with Kilo proof dragon,diameter is the same just thinner

And finally compared to a couple of 10 ozers which are bruisers themselves.
 

5 oz Lunar 2 horse and two 2016 Kookaburra.

Love it.  How much did it cost and where can I find one?

Another 3 carded Roos
 

Missed the 1/4 oz Brit offered on here, so was looking at the 1/4 oz Krug at HGM...gone, so thought about that 1/2 nugget....
Settled on a double sov at Bairds which came in cheaper than the half oz from HGM. Less gold I know, but thought I might get something interesting of a lower mintage. (I am not a collector, but a stacker. Repeat 3 times.)
In the end I received a 1983 proof. A high mintage year at 13000 individual and 13000 box sets, but quite happy even though it is without box/certificate.

20% off EBay purchase:

received my ebay 20% off full gold sovereign,

1/2 kilo lunar mouse, very rare at a mintage of 739 & the only 1/2 kilo coin I will have when it arrives.

Finally managed to get the latest 2 Star Trek coins.  I didn't want the captains so had to wait until there were enough items to order to reduce the postage rate/item since the places with cheap postage only wanted to sell them as a pair.  Picked up the 2016 1/10 Roo, 1/10 Monkey and Silver Roo to go with them as well as some spare genuine Perth Mint capsules.

Well this has got to be record for me.
Bought a 2001 Sovereign on the Ebay special about 4:05pm yesterday. And I have the coin in my hand now at 10am today.
 
an 18 hour delivery time, can't complain about that  

A 1/4 oz gold Britannia  and one Sovereign - both HGM.

The shiny silver proof Libertad addiction is kicking in again....cured today with a 2oz 2009 in great condition. Not bad price -£46.10 delivered. At 6,200 mintage not the rarest proof Libertad, hence the reasonable price. Still - bought for its looks, not its value to be honest. Still not decided if I like the old design more than the new...

I received my winning from the September drawing. My first silver bar, a very nice looking thing, might get some more of these.
Thanks again, thanks @Arshimo2012 very good packaging.

This one finally came through (not today but recently as I had it on hold from The Mint while I was away) Nice box and COA info etc...sorry for the poor quality - learning process....

1992 Silver proof Libertad set. First year edition.. Happy!
