Took 2 weeks shipping time, but QB Griffins finally arrived.

Thanks guys for the speedy replies. This forum is the best. Info passed on to my dealer friend.

While I was at my LCS today, he showed me a couple 1987 gold Britannias that he had bought from a customer. They have some writing engraved on the obverse that I believe is chinese, but I'm not sure. My dealer had never seen anything like this before and asked if I was familiar with them, which I was not. I gave him my best guess that they were probably stamped after market for some type of celebration event?

Stopped by my go to LCS today to buy some of the Mayflower 400th Anniversary gold and silver coins. He knew I had missed out on them on the release day cuz the Mint changed the normal release time. He bought some from a customer yesterday and called me right away. Picked up the gold and silver 2 coin sets as well as the gold reverse proof coin.

Received the latest Snowman in gold and silver. And my V75 Proof Gold Eagle came back from grading. I'm happy.

Arrived yesterday and today. 2020-P burnished Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller Nat Park 5 oz ATB, 2013 White Mountain Nat Park bullion 5 oz ATB, and a 2020 1 oz gold Chiwoo.

wow i got the combo knock out punch on the first day.

Thanks Aa. Yeah I think one of each design/denomination from Barber onwards plus dollars comes out to ~3.75 oz. I'll add some extras to get over 4 oz. Probably visit my LCS tomorrow to cherry pick some nice attractive examples.

I'm in. How about a set of 20th century 90% U.S. coinage. Dimes to dollars, Barber design onward. I'll make it at least 4 oz ASW.

I was very lucky to be able to get both of these on the day of issue. U.S. Mint website was a nightmare. 2020 Proof V75 Gold and Silver Eagles.

All three of the 007 1 oz silver proofs.
