Gold Proof Round Pounds   Another three of these handsome fellows, the 2015 Arms being courtesy of@shawy2510. Each 22ct coin weighs in at a respectable 17.98 agw.

I do love 10oz coins.  They have a beauty all of their own, especially close up.
I received a QB Completer today, to go with my Lion of England, Yale, Griffin and Falcon.
I think they are beautiful, and look forward to completing my collection.
(In capsules, so most of the scratches and reflections are on the plastic.)

Ten of my favourites from my collection 👍 
 

A little more silver this time.
Not sure what Father Christmas has to do with Fiji.  🤷‍♂️
Thanks to @J90ord for the (other) fuzzy animals.

Awk what a day🤣🤣

Big thanks to @Stuh for this duo.
 

So today I received a 1/2 oz 2022 gold Eagle from @BleyerBullion
Finishes my set off nicely in the Airtite display case (one more still for sale)
Lovely feeling filling that last hole.

Catching up on my photos.  They're all in caps, so forgive the slight reflections.
Thanks to @stefffana (long overdue photos of the beautiful Perth Mint Sov), @Paul for the Lion, @Rat for the roos, and @ArgentSmith for the Angel.







 

Big thanks to @arshimo2012 for these two additions 😊

These just turned up. Thanks to @BackyardBullion for his ever amazing poured work and @ChrisSilver for this forum.
Long may it continue to be successful 

A dealer in Queensland Australia bought a large collection of silver coins and I picked up a few of them. A bit of variety!

Latest package from @James32.

Today I received this delicious 5oz Egyptian Relic Silver coin 😍




 
I now have the full complete series of all 5oz and 2oz rounds, this was the last one I needed to finish the set.
 

Beautiful MS64 1887 half sovereign received today 

This is just glorious, the photos don't come close to doing it justice, thank you @StBeesSilver

Two very different arrivals today.
1. 10oz Silver Queens Beasts, Yale and Falcon.  (2oz Completer for comparison)

2. 450g of Mox Metals

Did some work on the photos to optimise.  Quite pleased with the reverse.
 

Thank you @stefffana for my surprise auction win.

A little more gold for the collection...

A fabulous 1/10 gold Tiger from the Perth mint.  Thanks @CoinStruck  
When you see the P mint mark on a coin you know you are getting quality!  

Hi, everyone!
I am happy and I want to share my happiness with TSF. Why? Because you are my best friends I ever had. Before TSF, I have been a lone wolf and now I am part from a pack.
I want to grow a gold and silver stack for my little granddaughter until she will be 18 years. Now, she is only seven months. My little angel....
With her gold stack was very easy to decide: every month I will add one tenth of oz, in a beautiful shape. But the decision about her silver stack was very difficult to take until two months ago, when @BackyardBullion sold to me two raw pieces of pure silver at a very good price, on behalf of another TSF member..
That was the moment when in my mind started an idea to make every year a kilo bar for my little angel.... Angel's Silver...... Angel's Silver.....!!!! @SilverAngel!!!!!!!  One of TSF official sponsors....
I have asked them nicely if they can make the most beautiful kilo bar in the world for my angel.  @SilverAngel,  Jan and Roy, accepted the challenge on 21st of June.
When they told me yesterday that the first kilo bar has arrived from Assay Office and they sent me few pictures, I have started crying... An old man crying of happiness...
Look what Jan and Roy - Silver Angel have done for my granddaughter! 
I can not thank them enough, my words are not enough to express my gratitude...
I want only to share with all of you my happiness and to beg them to continue their artistic hard work and start a series of silver bars named Angel's Silver. 
I can bet that all these bars will be highly collectible in the future.
I will use now two pictures made by @BackyardBullion with the raw metal he sold me and six pictures made by @SilverAngel.
I do apologise for using their intellectual property. I will add more pictures after the beauty will be in my hand.
Feel free, please, to comment on here your opinions about the most beautiful silver kilo bar in the world.
I'd like if possible, Jan and Roy to add more content to this story, eventually some videos/pictures with various steps of creation. They are in fact the heroes of my story!🤗
Thank you for looking!
Kindest regards,
Stefan.
 
P.S.: The first 18 numbers from kilo bars series are reserved by me for my little angel.🤗
 
 
 

This arrived today.  Thank you @Bars.
Photography info:  As you can see, I'm still experimenting with the angle and lighting.  Handheld with a DSLR and macro lens, outside on a very sunny day.
 
 

Three of these little beauties arrived Saturday.  I'll post more photos later, but I'm experimenting with my camera set-up.

Today I received…I wish!
Great afternoon at the Royal Mint..
