Thanks to @StackSellRepeat she is a beauty ❤

Atkinsons pre-owned mixed years Austrian Philharmonic 1oz silver, at £14.65 each including p&p has to be some of the cheapest silver I ever bought.

A 2002 half shield at 3% over spot, happy with that plus some ingots for my collection and bought half a kilo of 50% silver which included two semi mini coins, a 20 escudo and a Bermuda crown.

Legoland Rules

Just feel like I had my Christmas this evening! 
Thanks awfully to @fiveshotdonand @silversky for awesome coins!

Two golds from @arshimo2012. Thanks bud (My OCD isn't happy with you giving me 4194 and 4196 serial numbers though 😛)
 

Hmm. But dark in this car park. Try it again with the flash...

'ats better! 
 

Received my Roosevelt Dimes thanks @MikeSol

1989 half sovereign PCGS PR69
 
 

Received over the weekend but;
2 Aztec rounds courtasy of @h103efa


And a random eBay win was a 1/4 platinum 2017 Britannia. Not the best design by far but actually looks ok when its small haha. Looks perfect so will probably send for grading and then sell it.

A good day. Bought a loose double sovereign 2005 proof at an auction before the summer for £490 landed. Looked like this (cf pic from the auction website). Sent it in for grading after a bit of TLC at home, plus conservation at NGC and just came back 3 months later at PF70 Ultra Cameo...a perfect coin (£490 plus £65 grading fees). Only 10 PF70UC or DC graded in total thus far at NGC and PCGS respectively. Well worth the punt on grading from effectively a bullion coin buy plus a bit. A rarity. Not a massive win in the great scale of life but a nice result either way and a good chunk of bullionesque level British Sovereign gold
A fun day 
 


She is lookiing better the more ale I drink but all the birds always do  Joking aside, this is the first proof coin  I have of this year and to see it in PF 70 is engaging.

A little festive gift to myself. Not strictly PMs, but paid for with proceeds from selling something on the forum:

Not the best but cheap at 3% over spot for these half shields and the US 1 dollar

The pigs are in the collection - pamp suisse silver pigs - 10 gram, one ounce, and 100 gram. Collection is complete now to date.

I bought an original Austrian 10 corona from 1908 it is the 60 years of reign version.

2oz dragon & phoenix coin
 

Finally got some natural light to take pics of my most recent pickups. 
From the group order via BYB. Really like the new 2019 elephant!

 
From @Madstacks for my nieces Christmas presents:

 
And some nice aztec rounds from @h103efa along with some nice 50ps. Incredible detail on the rounds:

 

Nice little pickup. The 2010 commemorative Britannia 

My first gold!!!

2 1 oz Platinum bars, an 1856 Napoleon III gold 20 Francs coin, and a Palladium Maple Leaf.  Ordered the maple leaf on  a Black Friday at spot deal, so I was very pleased when spot went up $120 within two weeks.  First time purchases of platinum and palladium.  Bought both at the recent dips mostly out of curiousity at not having any of either.  I don't really intend to spend significantly more in either.  I'm just curious where they go from here in their cycles.  If I was tempted to buy more I'd probably go for QB's and Ballerina's.  I can't stand the obverse of Canadian coins.  The Queen's bust is so fugly.  They really need to spend some money and redesign it to bring it on par with GB, Australia etc.

and this just in from Yorkshire bullion, I've been eagerly waiting for this to arrive for a while:

Better late than never: some nice coins from the group order ( I do love those Rwanda nauticals) and a few fun ones for a Christmas treasure hunt for the kids.

Just recieved these, got attached to the Pandas so decided to get a few of the gold 1/10 oz coins to compliment the silver coins.

I received news I’ve got a few 70s on way back from NGC!
