Received my 1911 Canada sovereign today, it is my 10th full sov so I’m chuffed! 
Im not to sure about grade, but I paid roughly the same amount of a Atkinson’s mixed sov. 
I already have a London mint 1911 so I will put that up for sale to get a different date as I want to try and get a sov for each year (1900-1932)
 

so this is my e bay 20 % purchase ,  it actually arrived yesterday less than 24 hrs after purchase .

1912M PCGS MS63 
bought with the %20 off code

...and one of the originals that inspired the restrike.
 

Received today.  Bought it on sale for less then they wanted for a raw coin.

Picked these half proofs up over the last week/10 days or so. 2002 is perfect, the 89 no scratches but may have been handled in the past. If I were to have it slabbed and conserved would most probably sort it but don't know if it is worth it. The 84 was a present to my partner off myself as it is her birth year. I got it from atkinsons so I am not to upset with the condition (no scratches). This has definitely been handled, my girlfriend is not bothered by the marks at all but they bug me. Are there any tips for getting rid of the marks without conservation?
Also need to get new camera equipment as my tripod and light source are bugging me haha 

ok so this is strictly not today but Friday, this is what arrived in the damaged box via DHL /Germany, 1/4 oz libertad PP, finally after 4 months,  the wait kinda took the shine off it (pardon the pun) , but its  nice to see the detail, merry Christmas everyone

The presentation box is top notch and coin  looks superb.
Added a pic with a £1 coin alongside for scale.

 

Gone back to my roots....trip down memory lane....nothing fancy.
 

DHL/UKMail don't always fail. So here are my first Libertads and thanks to this forum I think I chose wisely:

Special Thanks to @Xander for donating this impressive Cookabura and getting it to me in time for Christmas!
 

2013 full sovereign for my daughters date run.
There was a little mix up, it was supposed to be the 2018 , i was advised it was shipped a week ago by mistake , they were out of stock. Once i called to see where it was the error was quickly spotted. We agreed id take a 2013 instead and it was shipped 1st class recorded yesterday free of charge.

Today I had this sovereign arrive I'm pleased with the coin 1911 Canada mint Ottawa. I've been after this year for a while in a good condition Uncirulated I will be sending off for grading with a few more after the new year. Just pleased so i thought i will share.
