1992 sov proof bought as bullion using the photoscope for the first time to post....cant get the whole coin in focus just bits of it and by hand.....pros would laugh and rightly so........
 

Acquired in a trade today with a local fellow collector - three nice 1 ounce Britannias - the last two in .958 and the first .999. Hadn't quite appreciated the difference in diameter, from 40 to 38mm. AirTite search coming up ?! Got them in that RM sheet wrap crap. Want to get them properly housed, even if they are just BU. If I get myself dragged into a date run (quite likely...) I want them in reasonable nick. I have a bit of a mixed Britannia bag now - these BU and a tube of 2015 BU, then all the proofs from 2014 onwards in OMP or as NGC 70s. 
Of these three I like the 2011 design, but I know it's not that popular.  

An angel and a panda rolled in today...forgotten I had even bought them.

Just bought an 1 oz lunar I 2003 goat.
Still not sure if i want to go and complete this set. 
I stopped buying more expensive coins, and i stopped buying things from ebay.
Looking around on ebay today brings back some bad habits   

I made an order for : 
- 1 x micky mouse steamboat willie 2017
- 1 x Queens beast 2017 Red dragon. (still sometime before it actually comes in stock)
- 2 x niue athenian owl 2017. looks nice and very cheap
- 1 x koala 2017
- 1 x Lynx predators series 2017
- 1 Tube of maple leaves (25coins) 

$10 Indian Head from HGM.

Created in Birmingham by @GoldBenj this 4oz silver bar was a birthday present for my father. It has the full Birmingham Assay office hallmarks. A beautiful paper weight or just fun to play with 
 

A few 500 lire, including a 1973 Vatican City.

Yesterday I got a 1994 NGC MS 70 1/2oz panda in the mail
Now i missing 1995-1998 in MS 70 if anybody have any to sell

A couple of 1/10 gold lunar tigers

Today I bought 2017 Malaysia trigos 1st KL Money fair 60g silver  Panda and dragon coins with a mintage of 66..

Todays pickup
1/10oz Lunar Rabbit

Just a few Rwanda Rooster proofs

A few recents

It is graded by NGC as mint error "Tapered Planchet". The coin weights 7.3g instead of 1/4 oz. Keen to see it in real, but have to wait few months when I visit USA again. 
 

Rwanda Rooster looks great. Happy that I bought a NGC ER MS70 graded early enough. I got it for 55 USD.

Wow, busy day. Different postman just arrived with the plainfields britannia 2017. Nice wee booklet too. Keeping the run going
