Xander reacted to Heirlooms in One kilo+ milestone reached!
Started seriously stacking/collecting gold just over 3 years ago and breached the 1KG level late last year. The forum has been a massive part of this journey, @ChrisSilver I thank you for creating the community and the work you put in daily to cultivating a thriving environment, long may it continue. Started with silver, then moved onto bullion gold and proof coins thereafter. There's also a bunch of others to thank for the help, guidance, advice, encouragement and inspiration to make it to this point (I'm sure I've left out a load of other peeps):

With the lovely weather of the bank holiday weekend I felt like sharing my collection so here it is. I took a load of pretty pics before putting everything back in lock up. I think I've accumulated a decent collection. I have a few outliers that I'll most probably sell on the forum at some point which are not part of below so keep a look out. I also may part with the bullion Britannia set (feel free to drop me a message if you're interested).
What next? I feel I have enough from an investment portfolio for now but I may start to pick up a few key older sovs, we'll see. Let me know what you think and thanks to you all again:

I love birds - so this lovely set of Belize coins from @CoinCupboard is perfect.
It is fifty years old and in fantastic condition.

Bit of a James Bond week. Both 1980s and 1990s turned up this week.
2024 Six Decades of 007 - 1980's - Silver 2oz and Gold 1/4oz proofs
Octopussy's Acrostar Microjet - actually a real flying jet aircraft.
These two coins turned out to be spotless - a little spot of missing frosting here and there, as usual, but no contact marks. Although, as shown in the previous microscope photos, the gold 1/4 has a 'wire edge' or 'wire rim' (terms vary) apparently caused when the gold is forced around the edge during the strike.

Xander reacted to Britannia47 in Unsure of this sovereign
Definitely a ‘FAKE’ just like all the other bog standard bullion sovereigns minted by the R.M since 1998……!
I’m off to check out my ‘Gillicks’ - bye.🙂
