Big thanks to svcollector!! Awesome service and coins

Received today, the new 2021 1/10th Oz Britannia with the new security features and although small, the detailing is very impressive.
 

1915 Perth Ms64. The rarest (?) Perth date in an excellent grade
Following on from my post on 1916 Melbourne, an unappreciated rarity, this post continues in the same theme but via George V Perth mint. There are those who exalt other Perth George V dates as being rare or scarce. 1926/1930 according to Marsh as rare dates or 1916/17/25/27/28/29/31 as scarcer dates. However on current data in Pcgs population report, 1915 has the fewest graded examples. The 1915-P below was one I hadn’t sought out but ‘found’ by accident, a rare year and 2nd highest grade, I think I picked up a bargain. I’d be interested amongst the Australian collectors if they were able to give me a sense of where the market price on this Perth full sovereign might be, as I haven’t come across this year & grade going through sales.
Thanks for reading & for any comments.

Added a fair few premium coins to my World Crown Sized Collection 

10oz Silver QB Lion of Mortimer
 
I'm unsure whether anybody else has posted a photograph of this rascal - my apologies to anyone who has.

A solid coaster, not as attractive as the Lion of England version.

Looks better when topped by a suitable goblet of '63 port.

There is little else to say. 

A great looking bar.

Thanks to @strawsforturtlesLLC for sorting me out with some really nice Utah Goldbacks received yesterday! Thanks so much! 

This is a really FAT round 
I am in love with this mint

Thanks @RiverbankSilver loving this piece. My favourite so far. Stunning lines 

RAM 2018 Silver Kangaroo 25th Anniversary Coinbar
 
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Skippy series, the RAM commissioned a rather attractive release. This 2018 $1 silver frosted uncirculated coin is housed in a 2oz silver bar, featuring a 25th anniversary design with a supremely gimmicky and entirely pleonastic ‘25’ privy mark.

The certificate number is located in the top right hand corner of the reverse. Although generally reported to have been a mintage of 5,000, in reality only 1992 were released. A pleasingly low adjustment.

The 3oz Roobar is, of course, 99.9% fine silver, and comes both encapsulated and boxed.
 
May extend my profuse gratitude to @CoinStruckfor his assistance in this purchase - a true gentleman.

So many fantastic LP’s released in 1979, and all still hit my turntable regularly...
The Clash- London Calling, Stiff Little Fingers- Inflammable Material, Joy Division- Unknown Pleasures, The Damned- Machine Gun Etiquette, The Undertones- The Undertones & Blondie- Eat to the Beat. 
Thanks @1817Karl for the matching Sovereign! 


 

Also the dollar is going to be strong as it's the first trading day that biden is now the new president elect which will effect the GBP also. It's certainly going to be a buying opportunity ☺️

Currently £1,438. Wonger would be loving this.

First stack photo 6 months work 
Started with silver coins, moved to bars, moved to gold lol and added a 1oz platinum today 
Not like some of stacks on here but the silver forum has given me a hobby and building something for the kids love this place! 
 

My first stack photo inspired by the post above. Started in August with just stacking in mind but I've now got the bug for graded half sovs. I'll try and buy anything thats shiny and I think is a good deal though 😂
 
 

A little over 100oz silver, 72.5g gold. Want to add some more bars, fill a tube of brits & phil's, and as much gold as finances will allow. Have thoroughly enjoyed putting this together and admiring other stacks here on TSF.

1 month in, there are three Britannia's of different dates not in the picture too. There are a few more bits of silver I'm after, and a couple of commitments on here, then I'm chasing gold as much as possible. The majority of what I have was found on here. There's a great community on here and a lot of really good people.
