Adding to the stack

Black Beauty stunning in the flesh rode her back straight from @ilovesilverireallydo’s stable 😜
 
😍😍😍😍

My first Belgian 5 franc
A pretty nasty chap but a lovely coin nevertheless. 
These large European silvers have to be the most addictive coins to start collecting- such nice size and high silver purity and can be picked up just over spot!
 

Received this great looking 100 gram silver forum bar today!!
Many thanks to @BackyardBullion for the great service, the N.o.10 collection is up to date again!!

Mmmmm minty fresh. Thanks as always goes to my bad influence buddy over the pond @Sulster cant wait for my next installment 😀

Well it was yesterday but I was bogged down with work.... Generic rounds from Reddit!

Set the alarm for 3am this morning & managed to win another top grade Half Sov
 

Recently delivered, I love this kind of medals.
Greetings from Maxe.

Ive just bought this 64 Kennedy half dollar from a vintage shop and was wondering how much you guys think its worth just out of interest ,theres a couple of dings on the edge Any advise is welcome and thanks in advance 

Following my initial attempt to add the the third 2 oz Silver Bleyer Hand Poured Rectangular Owl Bar for 2020, Caroline at @BleyerBullion was able to find one of the last available after it was quickly out of stock. Thank you Caroline for helping me add this beauty to my continued Rectangle Owl bar collection and ability to further help you with your contributions to The Barn Owl Trust!



Even our very own backyard Barred Owl approves!!!

Today I received my first byb forum bars, big thanks to our @5huggy for graciously making it happen 🙏 number 74, looking for all the previous years now as well.  AWESOME 👌 
Thanks also to @OriginalS for reaching out to me, and providing me with my first platinum pieces.  Feeling there is more to come. 
 

Today I received something really special to me.





 
 

Austria made these circulating commemorative silver coins from 1928 to 1938 when the Third Reich took over Austria and replaced their currency with the German Reichsmark, most were handed in to be melted down so there must be far less than the small amounts that were minted each year, all these coins were minted from .640 silver, and a new design was released each year and for one year only.
The coins are all a good size, slightly bigger and heavier than a UK 50p, the circular shield design was used until 1934 when replaced by the two headed eagle, the circular shield was re-instated after the war.

From left to right the coins are,
1931 release
2 Schillings 
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart the musical writer and composer who died young at 31, and celebrates 175 years since his birth.
Production of 500,000

1933 release
2 Schillings
This one features Catholic priest and politician Dr Ignaz Seipal, and his death in late 1932 at the age of 56 when assassinated by a socialist, the coin was not released until early 1933 though.
Production of 400,000,  this is one of the rarer and more valuable of the coins.

1936 release
2 Schillings
This coin celebrates the 200 year anniversary of the death of Prince Eugen of Savoy, who was a French Prince who moved to Austria when his mother did something naughty, he transferred his loyalty to the holy roman empire and became a field marshal, he took part in many battles his most well known was the defeat of the Ottomans in 1687.
Production of 500,000
 


 
Sitting nicely with the others, just the 1932, 1934 and 1935 to get now in the era I collect.
 

 

Speaking of interesting coins, these landed too. Lovely Armadillo Bolivares, a 50% Peru Sol, a Cinco Peso I didn’t even know existed and most exciting, a Tupac Peru coin... 

Been slacking on my interesting silver finds lately primarily due to not much interesting stuff coming in. This Lebanon coin I found intriguing. Sterling silver 33.59 gms so basically 1oz pure silver. 
 
 

Some 10 Nederland gulden and a Greek king George 20 drachmai

Few more for the folder. Love the Fiji coins although they're only .500 and the Australian crown is a serious bit of silver to circulate in 1937!

Ooh Machin! 😮  (In my best Kenneth Williams voice). 
A brace of Sovereigns.   Thanks @ilovesilverireallydo

YPS Limited Edition 1kg Pyramid is just wow, 1.5oz Polar Bears from @Pete & a 0.5g Lion King for no other reason that it looked cool.
 

I was yust looking for some indian heads 🤑

Another wonderful package from @DavePanda today!

And adding to that a rare 1995 "micro" date from @Agpanda yesterday I've started collecting my varieties in earnest now!

That completes my 1995 varieties:


So my collection is approaching completion. I will have doubles of every date from 1989 to present with all varieties  (if I can find the very rare 1999 large date serif and 2000 mirror ring)

The kilo 2020 Mouse to complete the full BU set. 1/2 oz to a kilo... 
25oz of different Perth Mint 1oz coins. Brumby horses. Swans and Zeus 
1 kilo 2009 Libertad plata pura.
 

Got this and a few other today..
 

Not a patch on what a lot of you have hitting the welcome mat, but this one popped thru my letterbox today. First bit of silver for a couple of years now.
