Funny story. Came home late last night and was dying for a wizz. Run in my bathroom to find this absolute beauty on the seat. The postman decided to chuck it through the window 🙄. Lucky the seat wasn’t up 😂

1 Libra Peru received today. Thanks to @Leonmarsh's post in gold deals. Stupid question but its got a bit of muck on it, is it worth trying some soapy water treatment?
 
 

Una moneda de oro de Perú

Chuffed with these! Got a few silvers in PF70 (wanted to make sure I got at least 1 ☺️) so I’ll probably post them for sale soon

Like this coin (the bigger one) 😄. Very fast delivery from RM. 

10 2oz Silver Bullion Queens Beasts Completer..............Like bullion coins can handle and take photos without stressing of damaging
What a stunning coin

2021 5 Sov, matt BU. Nice touch to have the Pistrucci added, as well as the crown privy. 
 

Was interested to see how the 10oz Britannia looked up close so had to go and get one of course and then compare it to the 1oz.

Soemthing different 
This silver Hemidrachm of Tabaristan comes from the Kingdom of Tabaristan. This Kingdom was located along the southern shore of the Caspian Sea, which is currently Northern Iran. The 7,000 miles long Silk Road linked Constantinople with the heart of China. This route was used by merchants to transport luxury goods, precious metals, art objects, and ideas between China, the West and Middle East. The Silk Road ran directly through the Kingdom of Tabaristan and many of these Hemidrachm were used in trade all along the road.
Tarbaristan at the time was under Muslim occupation, however the coin continued to be modeled after coins from the preceding Sassanian Empire. The obverse shows a right facing bust wearing a winged crown in the style of the Sassanian King Khusru II. The reverse depicts attendants flanking a Sassanian style fire altar, with a border of three concentric circles.
The Silk Road Hoard includes coins minted in Tabaristan and may have been struck under the rule of Haroun al-Rashid, AD 786-809. Al-Rashid’s name is mentioned in several stories from the collection of tales commonly referred to as Tales of the Arabian Nights. This example is graded Mint State by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC).
Up for sale in the graded section with a free bonus coin offer 
 

Still supposed to be selling. Oh well. 
1895 M and 1912 sovereigns to add to the collection.

1/4 Gold QB set arrived! Few hairs.  Would have liked to see an 11 coin set with a centre completer surrounded by the 10 QB.
Both my sliver sets have been delayed, so hoping they will send them soon.  







AAAAAAA.MOV

All back from grading 😀

Saw that Silver Dragon did this around Disneyland with a load of 1/10 oz Guinea spade coins. The marvel ones he did looked pretty good.

Mando protecting the earths.

Just arrived...they are sharp as in I could shave Withrow sharp the back edges are.
 

Received a 2013 silver proof libertad set. Beautiful coins. Will be sent for grading. 

Ok I know "the Who" range had mixed reviews... but as a Who fan I had to get the 5oz silver and must say... WOW... The definition on the 5 oz (hopefully the 2oz when I get it) is stunning and this is going to get graded for sure.. Will it be a big earner? Who cares (pardon the pun....)
P.S. my picture doesn't do it justice

Massive shout out to @Clockpuncher for this one. The 1997 1/4oz gold Britannia. That now concludes my collection of the 5 Philip Nathan Britannia designs. Was inspired by a comment by @Roy a while back to collect these. Lovely crenellated border design which brings them together as a collection
