Wanted this since 16 years old finally got it.

My heaviest single item of gold to date. What a beauty! 

 

New beast 

Today (well, yesterday) I received two boxes of silver building blocks. There are six 1oz blocks in each tobacco-tin style box. They are branded Monarch Precious Metals- I have seen them mentioned on this site before.
As a lifelong fan of Lego, I was slightly disappointed to discover that the silver blocks are a bit smaller than a classic 2x4 studs Lego brick, so they can't interlock with Lego, but they are fun to stack with anyway (they interlock with each other just fine) and I am sure I will never run out of ways to stack them: two 2x4 Lego bricks can be connected together in 24 ways; with three bricks there are 1060 ways; with six bricks there are 915,103,765 ways and the number of combinations of 12 bricks is (currently) incalculable.
Here are a few pictures of the bricks and their discovery by Benny's Space Squad (characters from the recent Lego Movie 2) and their attempt to make off with the bricks before being caught- a tense moment ensues before everyone decides to make friends and that everything is awesome...

Getting out into the mainstream - a recent interview on RT with Tom Coughlin.
 

Recently @msagan75 contacted us about a trade and we were very happy to add one of his pieces to our stack!
The only problem is which one? He does so many sweet pours and we had to decide together. Well we haven't made it 28 years by fighting over little things so we told him, his choice! We love to give the artist a free hand to do something they enjoy or wanted to try that is our favorite way to add to our community box. So we sent out our side of the trade and today we received our piece in the mail!

when we opened it there was a sweet metal COA a pretty velvet box and a STICKER!!! we love stickers and this one is so very cool!!!

It had been a few days of anticipation

so together we opened the soft black velvet bag

What an awesome Thor's Axe Stormbreaker was the weapon of early Thor and after he lost his hammer he went back to his stand by the Jarnbjorn that can cut through anything as it is blessed with Thor's Blood! This is an awesome piece,it is fun to hold with a great weight balance, you feel like it could be a little magic. Here is another look at this gorgeous piece!

Dixiesilvergirl definitely is a fan of things comic book hero's and Thor is at the top of the list(right after Hulk) so she is pretty excited!
Thanks for an awesome trade and if you haven't already seen his sweet pours give him a follow on the following social media sites;

Mine flower every year!

They like neglect, abuse (verbal) hot/warm temperature (a cool conservatory is fine in winter), plenty of light, and a water once or twice a year, you could stick him in a pot and in 25 years he will have a load of mates.

The cactus you have there grow slowly into huge colonies of little cactuses, and once in a blue moon they have tiny white flowers appear, you can just pull one off the colony and stick it in a pot and it will grow, if anyone wants one I can spare the odd one from mine.

2007 1/4 oz proof Britannia - will need conserving before grading.

Received today my first U.S pre 1933 gold. A 1910 D $10 Indian Head and 1911 S          $5 Indian head. Out of curiosity any experts out there know why the $10 has a more matte finish and slightly coppery look to it then the other. The $5 doesn't look like it's been cleaned either as their is still patina to it. Both coins weighed and pinged and no problems. Thanks

 

Wow! I'm going to take all my future photos of coins in bright sun light! My first QB. And look at it. It's immaculate! ?
 

Received today from Bullionbypost. I was impressed with their communication and next day delivery. Very impressive coin.

This just arrived in the mailbox. Bought it off pmsforsale.

 

Just retrieved this today. Japan vs America. Just under 4 oz.

 

Finally got my StreetFighter bar from @Silverknight 
Look at the detailing and depth! That’s real high relief  Love it!

Working on my collection of crowns. Father and son at loggerheads again:

Also fascinating to see the changes in the reverse from one year to the next:
