Sorry for all the pictures people as I just got this 1902 Matt Proof short set and I love it haha. I think I will get it graded as soon as I can afford it as I think there is a couple of crackers in there.

My first graded sovereign to add to my Canadian collection, a 1911-C MS63
 
 

Pleasure to have been of service!

I guess most coins like this are melted down, but I find it interesting nonetheless.
Engraving reads "mother to george 1856", no mounts or anything so not sure what the purpose of it would have been?
 

Not every time a proof purchase is even better than i hoped. Love this one. A real bugger to photograph these convex coins, though.

Hello all, package arrived in the post today from Noble Numistatics. This was my only successful bid in their April auction that was held in   Sydney over three days. Bought the 1952 South African 11 coin proof set. They had two sets available in the auction and I think I paid a fair price for it given condition. As you can see from the photos there are some condition issues with respect to copper spotting (the King seems to be staring at it on the £1 coin!) but I think they will come out of conservation ok if I have them graded in the future. 
I saw a Numistacker YouTube video on this set a few months ago and I recall he said the mintage was 12,500. 
A bit disappointed about how they packaged the coins. They were loose and had moved about in the case during transit and were not in flips. 

Received today some beautiful Canadian sovereigns courtesy of @SVcollector Very nice coins thanks
 
 
 

I'm well know for my 'dangerous' packing skills... Another victim has been made...  Glad you received the item good my friend! You bought a fantastic piece! I hope you will have a lot of joy from it!  Hope to do business with you again one day, it was a real pleasure! 

Recieved my 2017 200th Anniversary Strike on Day Sovereign
Cut my finger badly whilst cutting through the unboxing. Classic. Thank you @PolarPanda

These have been delivered mostly over the last few days from @MikeSol. I forgot to thank you for the DF Airtite capsule - thank you, Mike.

I purchased an LED magnifying glass recently, it gives some interesting results when taking photos:

 
I also purchased some lovely "junk"from Mike:

 
My OCD wouldn't allow me to have $1.75 in quarters so off to eBay I went for this rather worn example:


 
Last but but not least, a 1904 London Eddy   bullion sov:

This morning started of dry and cloudy then about 10.30am three young Victorian ladies from Melbourne came a calling. Sorry for the poor pics but they ladies will be encapsulated later today. My thanks to Nimistacker for my new interest in the Melbourne ladies. 

I'm gunna be sending 2017i pamp sovereign to ngc when I go to the next London coin fair heritage ngc grading will be there I mean they will be taking coins in for sending to ngc. I've got 4 of them but like them in the red card they come in but gunna grade one 

Two more packages arrived today.
One has a 1974 sovereign I purchased on eBay for a little above spot price. Happy with it and will probably have it graded.
The second package contained the 1963 sovereign graded MS65 and the 2017 Indian sovereign MS69 (am only missing the 2014 Indian).

Think you might get a 70 most have been I've got a 70 with wrong slab to 

Received this 2017 strike on the day BU sovereign purchased from a US seller on eBay. Have another one which was just graded PR69DCAM by PCGS (was rated as a PR coin although it's a BU coin) and so will have another go with this one and hope for the elusive 70 grading.  

I always wanted to get a 2013 India MS70 Sovereign but even with nearly 500 graded as MS70 not so easy to find at a decent price.
And mounted the wrong way round in the holder!! Does that count as an error?
Joking......

1856 Half Sov, tatty obverse, eBay bad photos. Not a bad price though.

Second portrait added to my small young head collection.
1866 half sovereign.
 

Been waiting 4-6 weeks for these.  Crazy premium against spot but fully expected for these kinds of things.  Few other pieces as well which I'll showcase when I get some time and daylight.
