I got a nice wooden box today and all my stack fits nicely....
 

My very first piece of gold, a little baby Krugerrand  

great bar 
but that was mission impossible 🤣

10oz pamp bar from @Rat wasted 15 minutes of my life trying to get to it lol 
1817 full and half sovereigns fine condition 


 

Today I received some silver building blocks from forum member @OlliesSilverBars.
Recently I posted that I had bought some blocks made by Monarch, but was a bit disappointed that they don't interconnect with real Lego bricks. In another thread someone mentioned that Ollie's bricks do, so I bought some to test that out for myself.
As the pictures below show, the bricks arrived nicely packed in little black bags, and are the same size as standard 2x4 Lego bricks. They even have the tubes underneath that give Lego bricks their "clutch power" but on the silver bricks they aren't full size. But they do indeed stack with real Lego bricks so it's possible to make a structure mixing up the silver and actual Lego. Being hollow, the bricks are lighter than the solid 1oz Monarch blocks. 
Of course, the presence of such treasure inevitably draws attention from the criminal fraternity, although small-time criminals are likely to make blunders when in pursuit of their nefarious activities that are likely to bring them to the attention of the law. Better hope the king is feeling merciful...
 
 

Thanks Mr & Mrs @BackyardBullion, All present and correct as always.
A fantastic video and something family and friends will be having a good cry over no doubt. This piece truly is something I will treasure and pass on to my children. 

Many thanks to @BackyardBullion for some group order goodies. Some Yale’s and a unicorn 
Also thanks to @arshimo2012 for this stunning 10oz from the Perth mint 

So today I received this absolutely stunning 2012 4 coin sovereign set - the trouble is I don't actually "need" this set any more as I have another already graded, so now I'm not sure if I should send it for grading and sell or just sell it in its box and get some money back in the bank 🤔🤔🤔

1843/8 - Extremely rare, probably the rarest overdate in the shield sovereign series. In superb MS63 condition, an ex-Bentley coin so had to pick it up.
 

My 5 oz Concorde collection
 

I got this really nice set of sovereign scales today there in great condition for being nearly 200 years old

10oz PAMP bar thank you @Rat
12x 2018 1oz dragon bars 
2002 proof sov 😁

2013 4 oz silver eagle and a 2017 3 gram gold panda. Got these yesterday just got some time to photograph them. I'm starting to love these big coins!😊

1841 Victoria gold sovereign
 
legendary coin
 
i always wanted this coin as a sovereign collector and i think i found a nice one.
 
only 125.000 were minted.

1987 Double Sovereign, this is my favourite portrait.
Not bad for a bullion pickup. 😀
 

Looking great buddy. Thanks ❤
