Could be tempted to sell my Brexit Britannia 🤔 

Out of heart surgery this afternoon and back home to find a little something waiting for me

I received my 2020 Britannia reverse frosting set today... looking nice in real life:
 

Three more South American beauties...many thanks to a man in San Francisco! (Peruvian Una Libras) - Sovereigns of South America 🇵🇪 

@5huggy Your set(s) include two of the necessary silver £1 coins that I require for a full run from 1983. I just took delivery of these this afternoon...

Courtesy of @Madstacks. Both functional and considerably more attractive than tubes of milky Maples.

A good day for premium and vintage silver❤

Lastly, a tremendous “THANK YOU!!” to Emanuel  with @RoslandGold for working with me on sourcing these superb beauties!!! Rosland Gold presents The British Museum Masterpiece Collection Gold Coins!
These 1/4 oz gold coin - of which only 3000 were minted are available from Rosland Capital. These collector coins are specially minted as a proof by Swiss-based mint, PAMP SA.
The series features highlights from among the countless masterpieces in the Museum’s collection, starting with helmets from ancient Greece and Rome, Roman Britain and Anglo-Saxon England.


British Museum Greek Helmet 1/4 oz Gold Coin. The first design shows a beautiful, classical Greek helmet of Corinthian type in bronze, dated to around 460BC. The helmet bears an inscription stating that the Argives, inhabitants of Argos, dedicated it to Zeus as spoil won in battle from the Corinthians.


British Museum Gladiator's Helmet 1/4 oz Gold Coin. The second design in their British Museum coin collection features a bronze gladiator’s helmet, dated to the 1st Century and found in Pompeii, Italy.
This helmet would have been worn by a heavily armed Roman gladiator such as the samnite or murmillo. It is said to have been found in the gladiator’s barracks at Pompeii. It has a grille of linked circles to protect the face, and a broad brim to protect the back and sides of the head. At the front of the helmet is a medallion of Hercules.


And 
British Museum Anglo-Saxon Sutton Hoo Helmet 1/4 oz Gold Coin. This 1/4 oz coin features the famous Anglo-Saxon Sutton Hoo helmet, from the early 7th century.
Unearthed at Sutton Hoo, in Suffolk, England, one of the most famous archaeological digs in Britain, this iconic helmet belonged to an Anglo-Saxon ruler. The surfaces of the helmet are decorated with animal interlaceand heroic scenes. An iron crest forms a great snake that arches over the top of the helmet. The crest meets the snout of a flying creature that covers the face of the helmet. The flying creature forms the nose, amustache and eyebrows of a human face.


 
In closing, this photo montage also incorporates a tribute to my father with the background including his fine art piece, a hand cast Bronze rendition of a Medieval Sallet helmet art piece.

 
 
 

And some nice British gold...
The 2020 Gold Double Sovereign BU. First double sovereign in BU with some great added weight to the collection!


And a huge “Thank you!” to @5huggy for this beauty! Adding to my 2017 Gold Sovereign collection, an awesome 2017 Half Sovereign Proof!



There seemed to be a stowaway in the Sovereign package from @5huggy...one of his Minions found his way to my house! Hopefully he doesn’t start multiplying and taking over my residence like has happened with @5huggy!! Thank you!!

Next we will enter some gold pickups. A few adding some weight and a couple which have been sought after and adding some numismatic appeal...
For weight, taking advantage of some New Years deals, also before gold prices went up...
A 2015 Canada 1/4 oz BU Gold $10 Polar Bear and Cub, still in manufacturer's packaging.


The tiniest gold piece in my collection...I think I picked this up to get an order above $100 for free shipping...a 2020 1/50 oz Somalia Gold Elephant Coin (BU).


Next up, starting to get semi-numismatic, the first gold Kook...2020 Australia 1/10 Oz Gold Kookaburra (BU).


And a numismatic piece to add into the Middle East gold coin collection...a AH1374/1955 Egypt Gold 1 Pound (MS-63).
