Big lorry sent me my first piece of junk silver ?? very decent guy ! Here’s his channel please tell him I sent you to say thanks ?https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSKHLqS5G48O57M_ub7XyIw

Received today E Pluribus round, RMC, XAG and APMEX bars and 1g Valcambi from @arshimo2012 and 2 x Engelhard bars from @StackSellRepeat. Thanks guys.

I also received a special package from a sand casting expert in - MSagan75
I hope to be able to organise a group order from him at some point as he does Stella work in silver casting!
So, I got an awesome 1 oz monkey and a 2.2 gram Bowie knife!

My first bit of gold:

And the family portrait:

 
Apologies for terrible camera phone pics!

Filling in a MS69-70 up to date gap in my collection of this series.
 

I waited very long for these. The 2018 Chiwoo is really a very nice design.

Today I received 2oz Queens Beast lion from Kamikaze.
 

Today I finally received my forum bars. Nice to finally hold them. Postage took 1,5 weeks to the Netherlands, so that's good enough

 

A few QB pickups : 13 bullion silver Clarences and a few 1/4 gold Bullion QBs: looking for a nice Clarence and a better Unicorn than my current ones to send in for grading....in pursuit of the elusive MS70s.  
As many have commented already - the Clarence Bull silver coins are nice in the hand - none of the sharp ragged edges of the earlier designs in the series.  I will put 3 into deep capsules and keep 10 in a tube for storage.  Will decide what to do once the 10x designs are in the bag.  Also a couple of slabbed Clarences for fellow collectors here on the Forum. 

Well, it's definitely a slippery slope this.... Noticed HGM had 2010, 2011 and 2013 full sovereigns listed and as they were gap fillers......
The strike on the 2011 is quite a way off centre - is this normal?
