I just got this today. A 1820 gold half sovereign coin with a mintage of just 35,000. Any guesses on what it might grade ?

I wouldn’t worry too much about the grade.  What’s not to like?

From @morezone the before and after!

1852 Half Sovereign. Lovely obverse, bit of a scratch on the reverse but pricey nicey. 
Ebay seller turned out to be a local coin collector and delivered it to me last night. Lovely chap, we chatted for ages, much to the wife's annoyance!
 

My first 1/4oz gold Britannia. I have quite a few 1oz gold coins, but this is my first fractional coin.
I quite like it. Not as much as the full Britannia, but it's still nice, and still gold!

Recent acquisitions from Baird & Co and Hatton Garden Metals. 

1911 half proof PF65 cam. Beautiful coin
 

This may well be the nicest coin I own, had to get it to match my BU version.
These will be so sort after imho with a mintage of only 750, had to grab this PF70. This is only available in the 5 coin "long set", which were 3300 RRP and have sold for 5300 on ebay already, only a few for sale atm at 6-8k.
 


 
 
 

some chunky pieces from @BackyardBullion
 

Hello, a very nice 1902 Brirtish proof sovereign arrived today to add to the collection of older proof coins. 

Finally got my StreetFighter bar from @Silverknight 
Look at the detailing and depth! That’s real high relief  Love it!

You can report it online,
This is the way I look at it.
If we stop others getting the same experience its a positive result. Also the authorities should take action if people report it. 
I must say the guy on the phone today was great. @BackyardBullion offerd to do a video for his channel. 
Another forum member is doing a video for youtube and other sites.
So he should get maximum exposure on how he operates.
 
 

I remember being on his mailing list and when I got a news letter all the other clients email addresses showed up. If I had only saved that email I could of sent a blast email to all his customers warning them Andres is a FRAUD. I say we start a go fund me account to send someone over to teach this guy a lesson. 

Heads or Tales 15 oz St. George and the Dragon statue, and a 1907 French 20 franc rooster gold coin

After waiting two weeks for it to fly half way round the world I finally got it My 1835 Gold Full Sovereign 

Sounds good to me - in the meantime I think we can share it with the forum members here - the YouTube community will have to wait a little bit!
 

I got this 1995 1 Punt (Pound) Coin. There were an estimated 750 of these minted, in their own presentation boxes.
Another 2000 were made as part of a set of coins (with many other coutries).
 
This is the rarest pound coin in existence (Irish), and is the size of a crown.
Truly fascinating piece. I believe that most people didn't know of it's existence until about the year 2000.
 
Got it for 150 euro, and most guides say it's worth about 350. Probably more value when graded.
 
 
 

Lovely coins and I hate you 
But I take comfort from the fact that YES, you will now start a collection and your nights will never be the same again.
Tell your missus to prepare and freeze your meals because you are now busy.
Cancel the Netflix subscription, you will never watch it again.
Get a beer fridge. It takes 11 and a half seconds to go in the kitchen and get a bottle, I know I've timed it. You will miss a deal in those precious moments.
Teach your dog how to refresh the page.
 
Doomed I tell thee 
ps. these are low mintage. PM me if you need the numbers. 

21 hours! From purchasing these yesterday to receiving them at at my door. Incredible. Very happy with the price, LOVE the coins, over the moon with the service.
@arshimo2012 You rock! Thank you very much, kind Sir.
Heads up for everyone, Ash is now using time shift/travel delivery. He informed me that he would be sending on Monday and they arrived today, two days before posting. This must surely be some new upper tier Special Delivery service RM are offering? 
So much to consider while I look lustily at these two beauties. Now I have two have I started a collection? Should I send these for grading and a little clean up? Will I buy a 1/10 platinum Brit from the group order to keep them company?
Video incoming, proper camera being dug out....

It’s took a while

How can anyone not love sovereigns?
