SILVERFINGER

Today I received a small group order for members of the family and some friends, none of it for me lol, but I am getting close to getting something big now.
I really like the design on the Aztec round, even magnified there is so much detail on it.
Here is the coins guarded by one of the rarest guns in my collection a Beretta Model 1922,  43,000 of these guns were manufactured (small amount in military numbers) and only 200 of those were marked to the R(anchor symbol)M or Regia Marina (royal navy), Beretta despite making guns for 100's of years were quite late on the semi automatic pistol front and were releasing new models almost every year, the hotpotch of different colours and finishes is all correct for this model gun, bronze coloured slide, dark blued frame and barrel and stamped steel grips (commercial ones had wooden grips).
Sadly the few of these guns that have survived have little of their original finish remaining making this one even more rare.

My 2019 Brilliant Uncirculated Matt Finish sovereign arrived today.
The pictures of both coins on the Royal Mint’s web site are shown in a weird colour which almost defies description but which bears no relation to the colour of gold, hence the reason I was keen to do an actual comparison with the proof 2019 sovereign that I already had.
The most immediate thing one notices is the packaging.  The “matt finish” sovereign comes in a basic cardboard box whereas the proof sovereign was in one of the prestigious wooden boxes.  Also the coin capsule with the “matt finish” sovereign seems to be smaller!
I do think that “Brilliant Uncirculated” and “Matt Finish” are contradictions in terms!  Surely something is either “brilliant” or “matt”, so can it really be both? 
To me, the new sovereign does not look to be very “Matt”.  It is certainly has a different finish to both the proof and regular bullion sovereigns, but I am not sure I would call it “Matt”.

some silver coins 
must say Marvel series look cool 😎 

Does it have chocolate inside, it would be best of both worlds then ?

Yeah I got a few for my mates ordered, I hope they bring out another series, they could go on for ages with all the Marvel characters.

Got the new Captain America coin from the Marvel set.  Here's a couple shots with different lighting.  Filling up the box!

Found some info http://www.medallions.co.uk/medallion1993pistrucci.html

Here's a very cool 1kg silver medal, one of my favorite, the 1980 golden monkey stamp is very well loved in China.

Interesting morning today. Picked these lot up. I always wanted sterling £1 coins but thought the prices were too high. I bagged a lot of proof and piedfort proofs without boxes or capsules sadly, but lovely nonetheless. Those chunky pounds are fun to hold. 
Also a couple of sterling 5p coins and the interesting Pistrucci medal. 
Lastly 1997 Britannia at spot, not in great condition but good enough for my bullion year run and for a low mintage coin not too bad.

Half kilo bar, Degussa (new), Germany
(actually produced by Valcambi, Switzerland)
