Difficult to gather and photograph everything at once, as I have several boxed sets that take a lot of space. So starting here with my gilded collection. Unfortunately not all clear in a single shot but in a nutshell they are Pandas, Kookaburras, Koalas, Queen's beasts and five Lunar sets.
 

Finally got some time to get latest received photographed...
Huge “Thanks!!” To @silverroller for a magnificent 2008 Gold Sovereign Proof to add to the modern sovereign proof collection. Also “a case of beer” from me for my first ever crypto purchase with @silverroller...a great help in working through the nuances of crypto wallets!

Additionally, @silverroller included some surprise silver coins which I didn’t have in my collection...a 1944 Silver Mercury dime, an 1887 Shilling and an 1889 Florin! Top bloke @silverroller!!

Adding to the Backyard Bullion collection, a couple 2019 1oz  TSF bars and the No. 01, 2019 100g silver BYB Bar! Thank you @BackyardBullion and Mrs. @BackyardBullion for fantastic silver hand pours and top-notch packaging!

Also, @BleyerBullion sent me the latest 2019 2 oz Silver Bleyer Poured Owl Bar in partnership with @BackyardBullion and supporting a great cause with The Barn Owl Trust!

Lastly, added the latest Royal Mint 2019 A Celebration of Sherlock Holmes 50p Silver Proof Piedfort.

Received this lot today.

A Beautiful lady turned up today😁😁

Two great 50p coins sent to me by fellow YouTuber Gold Digger Dave. 





 

Finally, received it today!

@mr1030 If its sold out you will get a return. I argued for ages to get a new hawking and had 3 goes, asked for new ones to be minted and they said no. You may get lucky and get an "unwanted" set rather than a defective one... but its luck of the draw I feel.

Reduced the weight of my collection with a few sovereigns added to the album

Received 2019 Piedfort Proof Set from the Royal Mint today.  Beautiful set.  Unfortunately, I'll be sending it back as the D-Day and Wedgewood 2 pound coins have serious flaws.  The D-Day has a a major scratch that must be almost a centimeter long, and the Wedgewood has a ring of blemishes along the circumference of the silver near the transition to gold plating.  Especially with the scratch on the D-Day, it boggles the mind how such a flaw could get past any quality assurance checking and actually be sold.  I'm certainly not a nitpicker that expects every coin to be an unblemished perfect 70, but these two are just bad, and shame on the Royal Mint for trying to sell such lousy quality.  I'm going to give some thought in the next couple days about whether to return for exchange or return and cancel, as now I'm worried what might get sent in exchange.  I wish they would let you just return the defectives, as I really do like the Holmes, and the 5 pound is a nice hefty chunk of silver beauty.

Picked up this 1977 Gold Proof Cyprus £50 coin at a reasonable price. Its in great condition, some very very light surface scratches perhaps where someone wiped it with a cloth but overall very good. Prob a PF67-68 after conservation I would hope.
