11/10 against Trump winning the presidency in my book, if he did win then Gold would climb to  over $1400, but here in the UK the £ would strengthen so we would not see as much of the increase though it would still be a big move.  
The price of Gold is not high its the price of the £ is very weak! all thanks to the BOE and Mr Carney who has been giving lots of free money to his friends in the City which means the £ is worth less now.    

Picked up a couple of IOM 1 ounce Nobles - 2016 gold and the platinum from 1987 (middle of the Noble platinum run which went from 1983-1989, 3000 mintage for 1987). Have to say - the gold noble has instantly become one of my favourites ! 
Took further advantage of the long drop in platinum $ price in early October (to lowest in 6 months) to pick up another ounce, this one a Canadian 2016 maple, and for metal diversity I got my first palladium coin - also a 1 ounce Canadian maple, from 2005.  Interesting to see that the palladium is quite a big bigger (less density than platinum). 
Also from Scottsdale - a 5oz chunky silver bar, and then the pretty awesome Chad King Tut 5 ounce Egyptian Relic Series with its chiselled look antique finish. 
From MCM when they got them back in stock - a few slabbed PF70 silver moon festival medals, which I was initially immune to ...but now appreciate more for the sheer detail packed into the 1 ounce. 
Two Asahi 10 oz silver bars - nice to see how they kept some elements of the Johnson Mathey design, but added some new design features. Core stack. 
Finally - a batch of QB Lion gold quarter ounces (still picking them up ...as I reckon they still hold a lot of collector potential). I am going to look closely under a loupe to see if any deserve grading. 
Need to lay off the PMs for a few days?..but especially enjoyed the dip in platinum, while adding to the collection and the stack. 

Finally arrived this morning.... beautiful.

today I picked up 
1891 Victoria jubilee full sovereign
2012 proof Elizabeth & the lion sovereign
1902 Edward VII half sovereign  

Royal Mint Proof Rooster and the 2017 Pegasus.  The quality of the Pegasus is very poor compared to the Angels.  Marks here and there and some white hazing on the horse. 

Got this today ....Thx Mo

Nothing flash or expensive just an old worn 1819 crown (I like it though) and a 2000 Canadian proof dollar to replace the BU I bought by accident.

My collection so far
1 oz Krugerrand
1/4 oz Perth Mint Lunar Series 2: Snake and Horse
1/4 oz Australian Mint Lunar Monkey
1/4 oz Queens Beast
2007 Sovereign
Also have 2 Austrian 1915 1 Ducats not in photo
 
I like 1/4 oz due to their size but they are difficult to come by. Looking to get the 1/4 oz rooster, maybe when gold price drop a little. Am currently looking into 1/10s but the premium on them is pretty steep so I'm a little hesitant.

Just delivered. Well worth the time and effort and as featured in @Numistacker 's video...a rare MS70 Lion Queen's Beast bought raw from Numistacker and kindly sent for grading with a great result. watch the vid for more info and subscribe to Numistacker's channel
 

Picked up today from last weeks auction,
 

1980 full sovereign proof
1872 full sovereign shield die No: 73
Now can't wait for Saturday's London coin fair  
 

2oz proof rooster X 5  only 2 are mine rest are sold.
Plus to make it viable postage wise 10oz monkey I never got last year & another 1/4 gold proof rabbit, which is cheaper than the current  rooster & has a very low mintage of 1525 as a single.
 
 

This arrived from the US today VAT free as well 
 
 

Something a bit different but i was very fortunate to have this come into my hands at work, after much deliberation i have decided to hold onto it.
Made by Samuel Jacob, London 1905

They are clearly taking the concept of "bullion" to it's extreme. At some point, they will just be selling blank silver discs.

Lets get festive!  
I wen't a little mad with my angel obsession and picked up a large run of the 1/20 proofs with xmas privys. Incredibly hard to get at only 1,000 minted each. Can't wait to get a complete run of these but i fear it'll be many years before i get there
 




 
Extra little treat of 12 privys together

Vintage Pamp medal.. Cant find no other similar or any info on the web.


 

UPS has just turned up with these bits at almost 6pm.  Spoke to the driver and he's told me that it's reached the point that his round is just about doable and I was one of the last 5 today.  Over the last 10 years, this round has gone from a single van to 3 vans covering the same area and on top of that, the vans have increased in size to accommodate the extra capacity.
2017 1/10 Kangaroo, 1 oz Gold UK Lunar Rooster & 1 oz Gold Australian Lunar 2 Rooster.  As expected, the UK Rooster has a few marks on it.  The Royal Mint is a bit of a joke in every aspect (bullion, proofs, packaging).

4 1/10 ounce Britannia's. Six more on their way. Trying to complete my set with coa's

Back to my roots. Bog standard sov 2015. Cheers @Ollie1016
Came in a nifty square coin holder perfect for sovs and which i am now using for my 1832 William IV (fine) sovereign

Today this beauty arrived with no duty or vat...?

Today I received this lovely medal

PF70 Panda moon festival and a Smithsonian Bei Bei. Also a Somalian Elephant.
