My recent pickups, 1 made it into the album

If anyone has any silver world coins they want to let go cheap in similar condition, let me know 😀

I love wartime stuff very nice, I take it those with the cross and shields are Swiss (same as on my Swiss Luger and K31 rifle.

Lunar Series I finally complete and a 1997 Gold £2 bought from the Collectables category on eBay, using the 10% voucher, so came in 7% under spot. Hoping conservation can do something about the dark spot.

You been shaving your pubes over old queenie

It's not gold or silver, but I found this vintage roll of Japanese 1 sen coins from 1943 for sale on eBay UK, and knew I had to pick it up - listings like this don't come around very often!

Excellent I love anything WW2 era.

Happy to have received the 2019 Albert Matte Sovereign to complete my set of 2019 matte sovereigns .

Now I seen these in a decent photo I think they are far better than the shiny and look proof like.

A lot of countries had silver coins pre 68. Some even after. Always worth digging through.

Well if you ever want to know the location of that antiques centre let me know but I will check that they are still there for sale first on my fortnightly homage to the place, I replied to your PM earlier mate.

eBay mining. The last week or so focused on French 5 francs (modern). 

Nice little stack built  

Do they have a silver content then ? there is a gigantic box at an antiques centre near me with all mixed coins from all over the world that looks from the 1920's up to the 1980's,

Oh thanks a lot (said sarcastically), thats it, you got me interested now lol, I didnt think they would slab coins like these, hmm that is interesting, it wouldnt have to be perfect grade just look really nice like the one on that link.

Myself also. Dont need the highest grades but will be needing more to do a tube worth.

I wonder if anyone has ever got one of these coins slabbed ?, I am not bothered about that just wondering.

Just now, ilovesilverireallydo said:

Am getting 50 of each coming in. If I get high grades will let your u know if you want 

Yes please, thanks.

They are stonking, I think I am going to keep my eye out for the best 2 & 5 I can find.

34 of 5 and 27 of the 2 of these controversial Reich coins. Aim is to stop at 50 on the 5, 100 on the 2, not too far off.

 

I would love a near mint one of each of these (2 & 5 marks), I used to have loads of these kicking around decades ago, but they were not that good condition, what % silver were they ?

All this 'admiring' of Britannia reminds me of Wayne's World:

Garth: Did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny?

Wayne: No.

[cracks up laughing] 

Wayne: No.

Garth: Neither did I. I was just asking.

 

Well I wouldn't get off of her until the neighbours complained about smell, she is gorgeous, probably one of the best looking of all the Britannia women.

Give us a story somewhere on the forum of your visit, I am interested in hearing about it, if you don't mind.

Placing a recent emphasis on US gold coins, received a couple of beauties...

An exquisite first for the collection, a 2010-W 1 oz Gold Buffalo Proof.

 

Also, an excellent bit of Pre-33 gold, a 1907 $10 Liberty Gold Eagle BU.

 

And adding to The South African Mint’s Big Five Series...a couple 2019 South Africa 1 oz Silver Big Five Lion BU.

I think the makers of the Big 5 coins need you to do the photography for them, didnt think a great deal to them on their pictures, they look superb here.

DING DONG,

 

RECEIVED THESE ITEMS RECENTLY JUST UNPACKED THEM NOW  (CHUFFED)

I love stuff like this, when ever I get a piece of militaria I research and try and find every accessory, book, paperwork and anything else of historic value, the lovely things here you will probably never see again in your lifetime.

Picked up a bunch of buys from earlier in the year that had been waiting for me.

I hope that USB lead has precious metal plated connectors to be allowed to pose with that gorgeous group
