Got some nice silver items from our own @SilverStan here.
 

Today I received... 
My first SilverStan 1oz round and very nice it is! 
If you haven't  got one yet I can heartily recommend it. 

Yep. Just checked up on them when I got home and it appears so. Bought from the only registered  grading dealers here so VF is VF for sure. They are in the JNDA (Japan Numismatic Dealers Association)
 
Here they are in the plastic
 

Two 2015 Britannia.

Havn't bought any PM's for a while, but my 2000 nectar points bonus turned up. Along with my 2000 points I already had sitting there, I thought it would be time to find some cheap gold.   Found a German dealer I had used before, selling an Austrian 1915 1 ducat gold coin for 130.50 euros delivered.   Used my nectar points , used my credit card that gives free foreign transactions , used TopCashback to get another 1.05% off   Leaving me with the equivalent of 3.44g of gold for the tidy price of around £74, or about 7% UNDER spot     Well that's my Xmas pressie to me sorted 

Happened (!) to be strolling past a dealers and popped in. Picked this up for 98 quid (18,000 yen). Such a pity someone defaced this by putting a hole in it for a necklace. In good nick, these go for north of 500 quid.
 
Also picked up an 1862 and an 1872 (die no.28) shieldback (young head) Both in VF condition, averaged 225 and 230 respectively.
 
 
1827 1/2 sovereign
 

Today I bought... 
The seriously sexy. 

Ordered 5pcs 2016 silver pandas
and 5pcs 2oz Privateer Captain from JM Bullion

I have bought the odd one but only if I can get it for less than £20.  Far too many people expect up to £70 for them.
 
Bought from coininvest yet again even though the postage makes it too expensive to buy a single small coin.  A 1914 Belgian 20 franc.  I only bought it so I had at least one minted under each king.

Went a bit LBMA registered yesterday.
 
 

A veiled head Victorian sovereign from Lubi.

1 oz high relief mythical creatures . And 1oz Rwanda meerkat
think i will have to save up for the 5oz mythical creatures , i think it would be pretty special
 
 

Various old European gold and a 2015 Platinum maple.

These arrived today
 

Russian 1/4 George the Victorious.  Should be a around 4 million of them kicking about from 2006-2012 but they seem to be really hard to find and really expensive.  They must be all hoarded away or something.

Earlier this week - received a 1913 sovereign (which the eBayer claimed was a 1918 until I told him it was not ....but hey / it's bullion). 
Then today my Iceland gold 1100 year commemorative for the 874 -1974 founding of Iceland. Lovely coin, original box - only the second gold coin ever from Iceland. Interestingly - the coin (0.4458 g gold at 0.900) was minted at the UK Royal Mint.  
Only one more gold coin ever issued by Iceland..,. Need to track that one down now!  
 
PS - I am not Icelandic .,,, but I did visit in February and loved the place and the people! 

Past couple of days I received the following silver 1oz coins:
Tube 2016 Britannias (not loving the textured background/field).
Ten 2016 Kanagroos.
Tube 2015 Armenian Norah's Arks.
Tube 2015 Canadian Bird of Prey, Great Horned Owls
Last Friday (I think) I also received a Tube of 2015 American Eagles.  Don't know if I mentioned that before.
The only thing still awaiting delivery, a Tube of 2015 Austrian Philharmonics.

Few bits for the 1/10th collection.  Looks like I might be starting a Lunar 1 in 1/10th collection.
The 2013 Brit baffles me.  The proofs are the seated Britannia.  In bullion form, the 1oz is the standard design with a larger footprint.  The 1/10 is the seated Britannia.  I've not looked it up but I wonder what the 1/4 and 1/2 are.

Received these two platinum beauties today from Bairds...
 

2011 Full Sovereign from my new friends at HGM.

SilverTowne Stacker round, Apmex Sunshine Mint Year of the Monkey round and 2008 Koala.  Just need to pick up a 2007 Koala at some point to finish the date run.
Kazakhstan Golden Irbis and 2016 Somali Elephant.  A couple more 1992 1/20 Libertads and a 1/20 2012 Panda to finish the set.  Took forever to find the Panda. As a backup, I bought a slabbed one a while back with the intention of breaking it open should I never find a reasonably raw 1/20.

Today i received my 2015 Beijing International Coin Exposition 1/2 oz proof Kookaburra.
