Got these charming little beauty’s from @DuncanWylieWilson , as always great coins and a great member 👍

just some more pics of my new beauties😍 and last but not least the gold and silver completers 😂

This fellow finally arrived after traveling halfway around the world. He doesn’t look too happy after his long journey. But I am.

Welcome aboard The Silver Forum!

Silver Matte Proof Gothic Crowns. I tried my luck, cause i never had almost white coins. They look amazing in hand. 

My actual sovereign 😍😍😍😍😍

Another metal

Today these 2 coins arrived. The Panda 2022 in a very nice motif as I find as well as the commemorative coin from Germany "Birth of Christ" as a Christmas coin. The weight is 22g and is made of fine silver 999. Greetings from Maxe  

Another one to the collection only 6 more to go lol
Is it just me or does the falcon look like he's got crippled feet

Silver Proof Gothic Crowns............I'm embarrassed to say I bought  these as a novelty and did not realise just how good they are, they are just as good as any Perth Mint silver proofs I've seen and that's high praise from me.  A great collectors set.

An interesting coin for a number of reasons. Not least because the Royal Mint denied it even existed.
But perseverance won the day and  I was able to order one from the Royal Mint!!!
My understanding is that it is only the third time the Royal Mint has issued a 1oz Platinum Proof Britannia.
The other two occasions were in 2007 and 2008 but only in 4 coin sets.

another day and another cheeky lil purchase, a couple of 1g bars courtesy of @VeracityM will be giving these as gifts to family members. Start them early on the gold 😉

Got both my 2022 Proof Sovereigns today. Very well packaged and no issues with the capsule or coins so it seems. Very happy.
 

I was very excited to see the postman today

Finally got a Napoleonic issue from the Rome mint - 1813 gold 20 francs 

Far from exciting but at sub £300 then one didn’t take a lot of thought.

My first ever hand poured silver.
The start of another slippery slope methinks 

Oops i did it again.
Avoided a hand shot this time due to the relentless abuse i got last time 😃

Today I received a very welcome package too... 

Thanks @BackyardBullion and @ChrisSilver for making this happen
 

Big brother and Little sister arrived today..... just need to name them now...... 😂

While some members here were eagerly waiting their 2022 Proof Sovereigns, I have been waiting patiently for the release of 2022 Chinese Mint Pandas. 
Picked up two AG and two AU. The design of the 2022 Pandas is both appealing and delightful IMO. 
Edit: The AU pandas here are from the Shanghai Mint. Goodness knows why they are sealed on 3 sides only !!! 
When questioned, the dealer showed others and they are that way when released 🤔
