Melon

Hey Melon. Yes, all coins in the tray were £14 so got some good bargains there (most of the others were royal commemorative etc).

If you work nearby you could definitely pick up some deals but I think it would be a case of checking often (maybe go for a walk lunchtime a few times a week).

The place to go is called the Heart of Hatton Garden. It's got lots of stalls inside. There are a few stalls at the back that often have silver coins tied to the spot price with no regard to collectability ( they don't know anything about coins and buy and sell just for the metal content). I think that could be a fruitful endeavour for you if you persist at it.

The stall in the very back at the left deal a large volume of silver / gold and keep a box or two of silver coins but you have to ask to see them

@Melon I don't know if they have a website or if it is indeed a business name, but I do know abbotsilvercoins is a member here and had some stuff listed in the trade forums.

Got another 6 1/2 sovs on the way + a 10g bar so the existing quadrum coin case is no longer big enough.
 
Solution - buy some treasure chests, 1 for gold and 1 for silver
 

 
Up to 33.24 oz and counting.

Picked up some coins from a pick and mix tray in Hatton garden



1992 10 yuan snow leopard
1993 5 yuan yin/yang
1911 Hong Kong trade dollar
1994 kangaroo
Maple and ase

Tip of the day: if you look at the yin/yang on the floormat of the 5yuan, the yin section is mirrored. If you ever see one where both yin and yang are frosted - pick it up as they go for many hundreds of pounds.

stop eating so much then.

Today i bought,well my son bought me for my birthday later in the month,a 1oz Atlantis Tiger poured bar from Sarnia silver,I have always wanted a poured bar.

Thanks to the forum members who recently purchased any gold from me, today I bought my newest ever car. A 2005 Ford Focus. And of course the colour just had to be silver. (,picking it up tomorrow night)

Today I also received a a roll /tube of First Majestic Mayan rounds, and strangely it is also my first full roll of anything. I won't bother sticking up a pic as MH has already beat me to it.
 
I have a little confession though............I did have a little fondle of them before I put them back in the tube, and I wasn't wearing gloves,   

Today I bought some silver from STG.
 
10oz Kookaburra
1oz silver Maple

The horse has a mark on it, so sending back for replacement - luckily Baird have been good about replacing it (as I guess you'd expect given sold as new from mint!).

Took em with my iPhone, I'm a couple of generations out of date now. Likewise can't be doing with wasting £600 on a phone right now... that'd get me 1.5kg of silver goats! (yup... i think i know what I'm getting next lol)
