We decided to get a Guardian Angel - my fiancee came out of hospital today after recovering from a heavy Covid case 🤫

American Silver Eagles 2021, Type 1 (US Mint)


A lucky find at a pawn shop, 2021 Type 1s to accompany my 2021 Type 2...

Graf Zeppelin Silver 5 Reichsmark, always wanted this coin. Picked this up for a really decent price and hoping this is a gradeable pickup when it arrives
Few nicks on the date on zep side but i'm seeing slabbed ms63s in much worse condition.

today I bought....
orderded this custom set which was completed yesterday from my friend and very talented canadian artist JP metals. he rarely does gold because of the amount of time it takes to clean down his studio to pour pure gold with no contamination. 1/2oz silver and 1/10 24c gold. seriously outta this world and cant wait for them to arrive

Am I in love? 💕

As I said here:
 
So I am on my first vacation day traveling, making a stop at Frankfurt. I know Frankfurt well, as I worked there for a couple of years. It is also the place where I first started to invest in precious metals, buying my first 1/10 ounce Philharmonic at Pro Aurum in Bad Homburg. I emancipated, getting more knowledgeable and bolder.
One of the better places to buy and sell loose gold coins over the counter is a chain of pawn shops called Exchange AG - they have fair premiums and a fairly low spread. They are scattered throughout Germany. So I went just outside Frankfurt central railway station, to get Covid tested and to look for some goodies...

I got rid of the Dukaten and got another

Today I bought this 1922 Liberty dollar from an antique shop for a reasonable price. It passes the magnet and weight test although it's worn in places. I do worry about picking up a dud but he gave me a receipt for it.

My Gold stack 🤠

Got my coins back today 

Well, I didn't received the coin today but last week... chuffed to get a 2002 sovereign at last.

My eldest was born back in 2002 and as such this will be a small gesture from dad once she turns 21 😍 Ag & Au... now to complete the two for the next one... 

 

Completed 😁

This 2021 summer is ending (although it feels like here in UK never started). I've been able to make only two purchases during this period, which I am photographing and showing here. I believe that, with the new 2021 design, Britannias are a very cool choice.
Quarter Ounce on a budget, or Full Ounce?

I’m a little obsessed with the team 🇬🇧 coins. Received both silver 50p and Piedfort. Lovely coins in excellent condition. 

Today I want to show this~
people may not interested in that.  Lol but it’s super super super rare
 

Spot the odd one out!

... and the Reverses:

No prizes though, not even a bag of chips.

Another coin from the set:
1887 Queen Victoria Jubilee Gold Proof Five Pound Quintuple Sovereign:

The colour has changed in the upload, even after deleting it and re-uploading, strange!

Colour has remained OK on the reverse.

2002 Zambia 3 Kilos Silver 100,000 Kwacha Proof Coin with Gold Plated Queen Mother Cameo

 

I don't know who minted it.
The obverse is quite boring:

But the coins does come in a nice bag:

Complete with golden tassels!

A small date run of 1989 to 1993, a 2010, 2018, 2021, 2021 - one of the 2021 Type 1s I got yesterday found it's way in here.

Some slight hairlines, but no milk spots!

Doug said "Gorgeous tones", and I agree!

An ASE type 2 proof I’m keeping. 

Both graded ms70
5oz antiqued Zeus & Poseidon with a mintage of 50 each. ⛈️

The Ups delivery truck brought me these little stunners today 🤩 I have a extra one for sell if anyone is interested, I’m not too bothered as I could just stare at them all god damm day! 😍

Big thanks to @paolo
