Merry X-mass Mr. Freezerrr
 

Twas the day before xmas and a last minute couple of naughty but nice purchases 
 

Received this 27g ingot and won it at quite a bit under sport £12.88 delivered one more for the stash

I wasn’t quite sure where to go next after my initial foray into historic sets and to follow on from my purchase of the 1902 Edward VII Matte Proof Set.  
Decided on this beautifully preserved 1911 George V Proof Coronation Set- a tiny 952 10 Coin ‘short’ sets were issued.

Once again, thank you to @Elements @Roy & @SilverMike who helped me decide 😀 

These just arrived, all beautiful.
2020 limited edition silver proof and a 2020 v75 in pr70uc and the rarer blue label.
 

2008 RAM 1oz Silver Proof " Reg Mombassa" Kangaroo   Struck by the Royal Australian Mint, this was the second in the highly successful "Artists" series of 2007-09.   "Well-known" and "legendary" Reg Mombassa has been best known in Australia for a multitude of art works and styles as well as music. His art work has graced the Mambo Graphics clothing series, music recording covers, books, calendars and  he has even had the honour of painting one of Melbourne's historic trams. Reg was also extremely famous for his musical skills as co-founder and guitarist in the band Mental As Anything.    Oh, really? Personally I had never heard of him prior to this coin and have had zero intention of ever learning anything more, even based on this alluring CV.   "Shining through on this coin is Reg's typical Aussie larikin sense of humour for which he is so well known." Righty-ho, thanks for clearing that up. All well and good if you're an Ozzie, but a load of irrelevant tosh if you're not.   Regardless of the sycophantic gushings of the RAM, I really like this rather endearing fellow and it proved to be extremely popular with collectors too, the full mintage of 7,500 selling out very swiftly. Of all the proof Skippies. this version has proved the best "investment" and is still highly sought after - as, indeed, are the both its FrUnc and gilded counterparts.   Huge thanks to @CadmiumGreenfor his invaluable assistance in delivering this.  

Another best value half Sovereign from the Britannia Coin Company. Extremely fast delivery. Just in time for Christmas.

I had forgotten about this beautiful medal, I love collecting these things.
Greetings from Maxe.

And Her Majesty on the Obverse.
 

It is not perfect (on either side) however I don't consider it to be bad enough to send back. I was of course disappointed when I opened it and had a look through the 10x loupe and I would certainly like to meet some of the QC team when I visit the mint next year. Anyway a PF70 it isn't.

Today I received these awesome pours by 🔥@ApolloMetalworx
And also many thanks for grabbing this limited run Emptyo bar for me as I would have missed it.

After a massive backlog with mail, finally got my hands on a few parcels that I've been waiting on. Got a few feedbacks to leave soon as I get the chance. 

I also recently received these well-made medals, issued by the Intaglio Mint USA, theme: Western Legends.
If we don't read each other again, I wish all forum members a healthy and peaceful Christmas.
Greetings from Maxe
