Bonus pic...busted out of their cages and released into the wild.....

20 x 1/10 Krugerrands plus £75 as part of an exchange for some graded stuff.

Today I received this stunning $10 Indian head, it’s such a beautiful coin that I can’t stop looking at it, thank you so much @Cornishfarmer 

A first..my wife walked in with a coin this evening...I nearly fell over!
A small gift from her employer..every little helps!

 

Only a little mail call today, not so common bit of vintage

Picked up two amazing fractionals today. 
1/10 penny black( yep is a black colour gold coin) mintage 2015 (needs a bit of a clean) 
1/10 2009 Isle of Man Angel Proof Piedfort. Interestingly it’s NOT a 1/10 but 1/5 being twice the weight and thickness  of a 1/10.
The mint decided to retain the 1/10 denomination, which is really odd lol. Mintage circa 499
 

A few more additions to my US coins this month. A $5 liberty head gold coin from @StackSellRepeat 40 more quarters from @DrDime and Franklin half’s and dimes plus a bonus quarter and bag from @Peacemaker very happy with this lot, we’ll packaged and quick delivery from all. This was my birthday treat for the month. 

The last of my tax rebate, two 2018 and one 1884 Sydney Mint
 

$5 Indian. Ebay purchase for £244 inc postage. Came in a nice wooden box too.
 

Delivered yesterday, 2019 Premium Sovereign Proof Set.


Also bought a couple of coins from the LCS.  An 1853 $1 Liberty Type 1, and an 1861 $1 Type 3 Indian.  I'm only missing the $1 Type 2 and the $3 Indian Princess to complete my U.S. gold type set.


And if anyone hasn't examined a $1 gold coins in hand, here is a pic of them next to the tip of a pen for scale to show how small they are.  How people back then could have transacted with these without losing them is beyond me.

Didnt receive any coins but got "holder" for dimes

Got this sweet little .999 silver stamp from the Netherlands in a trade with a friend from YouTube.

Can stack diversification get any more beautiful?

This is a belated "today I received", because after a very public hallmarking failure at the Edinburgh Assay Office due to silver contamination, this BYB gold bar was hesitant to leave the pouch 

However, it eventually mustered the courage to emerge, with the help of these gold eagles which it turns out are 3% silver.  The bar began to realize there is other gold bullion in the world that contains even more silver, but is still widely accepted.

Now well adjusted, and comfortable with its silver content, the bar has joined the stack and exists in harmony with bullion of all shapes, sizes, and metal content.  

A huge thank you to @BackyardBullion for doing on awesome job with this bar, as usual!!

Mixed date silver Morgan Dollars (AU+) for the years 1888, 1890, 1896-1898, 1900-1902, 1904 and 1921 ...

The full die set of capped and classics at last.
 

I had a very nice surprise in the post today, if you remember a couple of weeks back, @jonrms held a giveaway to celebrate his 500 YouTube subscriber milestone. I watched the live draw with anticipation, how you do, near the end I saw the full sheet of entrants and noticed my name was missing. I entered on this forum so when I mentioned it Jon checked the post and somehow he'd missed me. "no worries' I said, but Jon being Jon, did worry and he duly sent me a gift to 'make things right' and show he cares about the detail .... a cracking A.C.E Bullion sticker and a very nice Edward VII shilling. What a nice chap.

Sooo heavyyy @Bullionbilly

Today my daughter had her delivery from Bleyer. another piece of silver art from @BackyardBullion

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.



 

Mostly ASE's today.
X20 from group order thank you @BackyardBullion.
X2 from @StackSellRepeat thanks mate 👍

Also had a 2019 Congo silverback

Today I received my 100gm Metalor silver bar from @Sovereign to go with 5 ASE's that I got elsewhere. Also my 1oz swan from @arshimo2012, which arrived last week and a 2002 sovereign that I picked up from my local bullion dealer in the high street today for a good price.
