Thanks to Numi for getting this pair tucked up nice and safe [emoji6][emoji16]

Well happy big thanks to Numistacker 



 

It was a couple of days ago, but today's the first time I've been able to get on here to post. A stunning custom piece by @BackyardBullion for a very special birthday
My poor phone camera cannot do it justice, so I'll use the perfect pic BYB sent in advance, which shows it off in all its glory!
The reverse side is custom stamped with an important personal message, and hallmarked. I'm over the moon with this - a piece that will be in a dear relative's family for many generations to come I would hope!

From first PMing through the forum, superb contact at all times, this was truely a collaborative effort. By that I mean, of course BYB did all the leg work, but at every stage he was consulting me and advising me (luckily I listened to his sage wisdom at some - rather key - points! ) to ensure this very meaningful gift was absolutely what was wanted, and was something he was happy to deliver as a commission. Lovely work @BackyardBullion, so very many thanks again
100% satisfaction here, and I cannot wait to see the recipient's face when they open this up!!!
 

Quincentennial and Bicentennial Quintuple Sovereigns
 

ebay buys
1877(s) Full sov shield AU58
2017 Full sov PF69 for £590 (add £200 for pf70)
noticed the prices on the 2017 full proof has fallen down a bit? 

Freshly returned from NGC, my 2017 1/10 oz Gold BU Libertad!  The luster of the Gold in contrast with the sky blue label and the image of the actual statue really makes for a great presentation.  The MS69 doesn't hurt either 

It's here! 
What a coin  
1911 Proof Full Sov , NGC PF65 Cameo
 
will do a youtube video soon ,, 

2016 full proof sov pf69 
few scratches on the slab 

Bullion price so no complaints about the marks. The case was a very nice surprise as it hadn't been listed as being included. The proof coins really are lovely to look at as you catch the light playing on them.
 
 

One of the coins I've been coveting since I began collecting.  Thanks to @metalslug I can cross it off my want list.  Thanks so much my friend.  Great price, stellar packaging.

 

Lucky to receive my 1/4 oz gold libertad from Coininvest as UPS left it on my front doorstep in full view of anyone walking on the pavement .

Sotd Sovereign from BNT.

20 Goldmark 1912 Wilhelm II. Sort of the German equivalent to the sovereign with 0.05g less gold due to the 0.900 alloy.
