2018 Bullion full sovereign

I picked these up from Apmex with my eBay bucks (plus a lot of cash).
 

I got my first order from Eldorado coins based in Germany (I believe). Postage was pretty good on 20 coins (£8 odd) - ordered at the weekend and arrived (tracked) today. I haven't been over them all with a fine tooth comb yet but absolutely delighted to open this well-packaged parcel (comms have been great too). I am dead chuffed with all these coins - I never thought the Marvel ones would grab me (I only know the Spidey comics and haven't followed the films), but a few videos changed that and I think they are very cool indeed- very different from what I normally stack
They are all an ounce, I just had to take a shot at a weird angle to (try to!) show off some of the lightplay on the Marvels (my phone camera is rubbish), but really stoked with all so far. The Marvel at the top are also part of rolls, so higher up and it distorts perspective. The Niue 'double dragon' was very cheap and is nice I think for what it is, much better than some of their other stuff, so both obverse and reverse for those are shown at the bottom, please ask me if'd like close up just on those

Gold Premium member prize ??

Very nice 1990 half sovereign purchased from a US eBay seller arrived today. 

Whats the proof on that one 

Is that for hammering your balls into shape or something like that ?

Many thanks to Backyard Bullion for the prize in his 5K subs give-away.

The Laffer curve is only controversial if you call it by that name amongst left wing politicans.  If you call it a supply/demand curve no one bats an eyelid, that's essentially what it is.  The trouble is, its bang on the money.  Recent examples, the UK haven't had petrol duty prices for years because they reached the peak, and the top rate 50% income tax return less revenue than when it was reduced to 45%.  UK tax as % of GDP is down from peak-Brown, though we are above the lowest tax take of Brown era - austerity is a lie.
