    Three interesting world coins. 
    Mexican 20 Pesos one I haven’t had in my collection and very pleased to add it in. 
     
    The Somalian coin is interesting as it’s the Gothic Florin design. Odd though as it’s only 9ct. 
     
    the Burundi- Rwanda coin is pretty interesting although not in the best condition.

    Not all received today, but are being ‘shown today’ for the first time.
    A few months ago, I fell for these ‘Sovereigns of South America’ (same size, weight etc as the British Sovereign), and started to hoover up as many as I could!
    The more observant might have noticed a couple of them appearing on Numi videos recently (1917 and 1966). Lots more heading to NGC soon I hope😃!
    Some of these ‘South American Sovereigns’ can have ridiculously low mintages (see numista) https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces46644.html
    but sell for reasonable prices 🤑...just got to love them 😀.
    More information on this coin, and others from South America can be found here on the forum.

    Peru Una Libra (1898-1969) A bit more about them...
    Graded ones obtained so far:- (Picture from Today I Received)

    The libra, also known as the libra peruana de oro ("Peruvian gold pound"), was a unit of currency issued in Peru between 1898 and 1931. It was equivalent to 10 soles and was issued in the form of gold coins and banknotes, which circulated alongside coins denominated in centavos and soles. 
    Other smaller denominations have also been produced:-
    1/5 libra: 15 mm diameter, 0.0471 troy ounces of gold
    1/2 libra: 19 mm diameter, 0.118 ounces gold
    1 libra: 22 mm diameter, 0.235 ounces gold
    The first libra coins were minted in 1898, to the same standard as the British sovereign (113 grains of pure gold). In 1901, Peru adopted a gold standard based on the libra worth 10 soles. The gold standard was maintained until 1932 (see Peruvian sol for more details). Coins were issued until 1930, banknotes until 1933. No Libras were minted between 1930 and 1959.
    Obverse: On the obverse in the center there is the national emblem of Peru, supported on each side by two different branches: palm and laurel. The sun shines over the heraldic shield. The inscription “REPUBLICA PERUANA-LIMA” extends almost along the entire length of the rim, leaving room for the year of issue (the date is indicated along the lowest rim).
    Reverse: The reverse side of 1 libra is decorated with a bust of an Indian (Inca warrior - Manco Capac), turned to the right, crowned with his mascaypacha 🤔? The reverse inscription is “VERDAD I-JUSTICIA”. The letters are bent around the top half of the rim. At the bottom edge under the image there is the denomination of the coin “UNA LIBRA”.

    Well and truly on the Perth Mint dragon bar bandwagon now. Love these little things!
    10 x 2018 from our very own @Spanishsilver - thank you! Another 10 will hopefully be on it's way in the new year to fill a tube. 

    5 x 2019 from Mad 4 Silver. Again, looking to fill a tube of these pretty quickly before turning to the 2020s.

    All things good come to those who wait- marvelous sets. Frustrating but definitely worth the wait.
    Maybe the COA will turn up in 2021? 😉

    Long story short, I now have a 2017 proof 7 coin set without a coa and a 2019 proof 7coin set with a coa after a 2 and a half year wait.
    The 2019 set was sent free shipping as an apology for there being no coa with the 2017 set.
