Half way there on my 50 piece Tetris set

Many thanks @backyard bullion

Love this. Is each piece 1oz?

Long wait on these from the states 34 days 🙈, so really quite appropriate that they should be the last 2 numbers minted. 

 

Will cut them loose soon

These are real nice. Will have to look into the mint

It doesn't get much better when the postman brings shiny things two days in a row!

I only received my first ever piece of gold yesterday to add to my stack and today saw a second piece of gold arrive to keep it company.

My 1/4 oz Gold Standard is joined by a stunning 1/4 oz Lion of England this time courtesy of @arshimo2012, who is an absolute gent it must be said.

Am I being swayed towards the yellow stuff from my beloved silver.....still not sure yet......not quite the same heft holding a 1/4oz of gold by comparison to say 20oz of silver......messes with the head a little! Time will tell. 

Just need to find a good quality capsule for the wee Lion and I think I could do with finding a good quality monster box to start keeping everything together too.

Flying start on the gold there bud. Personally I think it's more exciting to hold than silver

As a child I collected old british coins and foreign  currencies left over from holidays. Was given a 2 pence cartwheel which I still own. My dad bought me a 1998 1oz silver britannia out of the newspaper when they were released (westminster advert)

Eventually lost interest through school, and for my 18th I was given a half sovereign by my parents, and for my 21st, a full sovereign.

Again, left in a box hidden away and forgotten about. 2015, and I cant remember why, but I decided to buy 2 x 20g gold bars from bullion by post. Again left in the same box as the sovs and forgotten about.

Finally in 2018 pretty much bang on 2 yrs ago, I decided to buy 5 x 2018 perth mint silver dragon bars and after that I well and truly got the bug
