Some 2017 Perth Koalas, Some Next Gen 2018 Koalas, and some 2019 Royal Arms. All impressive. I knew what I was getting with the Koalas, but these are my first Royal Arms. I think the Royal Mint is making it a co-standard national bullion coin along with the Britannia. It's going to be the base of my national bullion coin stack from now on. Very cool coin.

I like it, but really the 'Valiant' is basically the silver version of the sovereign.

I got this in the mail today. Germany Prussia 20 Mark Wilhelm II 1889

Managed to get a 1829 sixpence at a good price. It has just arrived and it’s a beauty. The date run I am collecting is more or less there now. Just a few pesky expense ones to save up for......

2018 Libertads.  About 350 of them. (not all pictured)

And just to show how the light reflects on this coin - same picture for the obverse, different picture for the reverse:
 

I was struggling with this recently, and decided to sell some 1oz gold lions and griffins, and also 2oz silver griffins. Just looking at the premiums, I decided to do this based on reviewing the prices I could currently buy older gold and silver bullion with somewhat similar mintages (older 1oz gold Britannias from the early 2000s, Perth Mint lunar, etc) from a large dealer like APMEX with a diverse inventory.  
There is no way to tell now if this was the correct move, and I do have a bit of sellers remorse, as these are beautiful coins. 😊 I'm more like @AgCoyote though in that I do plan on keeping a set together for a long term collection regardless of premium. I imagine that this type of mindset is what drives the premiums in the first place. 
However, I did roll the proceeds into newer Beasts (Yale and Falcon). I prefer this rather than Eagles or Maples, because they all have the same downside (spot fluctuations), but Eagles or Maple Leafs will likely not ever develop much of a premium.  Additionally, the new issue Beasts have a lower per ounce premium than either new issue Eagles or Maples.  Although I ultimately sold the silver Griffins on eBay, even the dealers were offering a premium on their buyback offers, but at a big dieocunt relative to their own selling price.
