Last purchase for a while (famous last words) but one I've been keeping an eye out for a while, so when this appeared I had to try and get it.
2013 SOTD 3 coin set. They only made 124 of these sets, so pretty rare.

500 produced paid a little more than I would’ve liked thanks to GSP!

Today i got the first of my Draped head set,its an 1806 Draped Bust Half Cent coin, Small 6, stemless Variety

These arrived today

Received some great bits today. HAPPY MONDAY. Chronos series right from the pressburg mint 

More minis including first year of issue 1/10 gold Brit. 
Love the 1/20 Monkey
 

Careful those little coins can get addictive 

Beautiful Napoleon III  50 francs - Paris 1862 . Not really expensive considering the mintage (24418)

I’ve bought some very impressive looking Silver lately, including some beautiful Proof & Reverse Proof Libertads however, @kneehow2018 tempted me with this 5oz Sterling Silver Russian gem of a coin- it exudes quality in terms of design and workmanship & a free Beast too. Thank you. 

Nice Canada dollars at spot

VINTAGE ULTRA RARE ANZMEC METAL EXCHANGE COMPANY PTY LTD SILVER ROO 100GMS SILVER .999 ROUND

A nice little box from the European Mint arrived today.

Three more six pences for the collection. 
1602, 1787 and 1824.
The 1787 is particularly stunning. 
 

This is getting silly, in my change. After I manage to sell them hopefully it will the best part of two oz's of silver for £2!

Harrington & Byrne sovereigns arrived today. A couple actually feel thinner on the edge than previous sovereigns I have, but the weight ‘feels’ good. I need to get a digital scale. 
Strange they sell these sovereigns so cheaply, and add all this fancy packaging which obviously adds cost. I don’t understand H&B: selling sovereigns slightly below spot, only 3 per household, all this unnecessary packaging, the weird sales call, no email on order dispatch etc. A strange bunch. Much preferred the process with Bleyer but maybe not the price 😄
Also a small order from STG mainly to get me up to date with the Queens Beasts series. I dare say that’s me for a while or the wife will go crazy.
