Hammer time 🔨

Thanks to @Neuri0n for my first gold eagle.  Will upgrade to an ounce soon.

Parrot: "Pieces of eight!  Pieces of eight!" from @ilovesilverireallydo.

Thanks to the help of @Lr103 i received a nice pair of Brussels Mint 20 Bolívares and a harder to get 2020 1/10 Platinum Britannia. 
 

Nearly there.
 Each Monarch since the Inaugural Sixpence issue.
Notable absences is a Phillip & Mary Sixpence (substituted here with a Mary Groat) and also a William & Mary, neither of which I have been able to source an example I would be happy with, the former will be a difficult gap to fill.  In terms of a Cromwell issue, I've resigned myself that it would be beyond my resources to ever acquire that Sixpence.  
I will in time add a nice example Hammered Elizabeth I and a Charles II- and I would like to add Proof George III & George IV example's well as a Proof William IV issue.  
What I've learnt: Sixpences are a difficult denomination to source in better grade!  The House of Stuart, particularly the Charles I period is the most interesting in terms of Coinage and Types of coinage.  
What I need to learn:  to take time and have more patience in curating a collection of this type.
Hope you enjoy taking a look at these Sixpence Types as much as I have enjoyed collecting them.
