Got the long set but keeping it long for now.....really superb coin. Well done.

Wowser

Scrooge McDuck arrived in the post today but is destined for a work colleague who models himself on this character. I'll probably get myself a couple now I've seen one up close.

1846 Young Victoria Shield Gold Sovereign won in ebay auction. A very fine Shield added to the collection from an excellent reputable seller.

1911 half proof PF65 cam. Beautiful coin

This may well be the nicest coin I own, had to get it to match my BU version.
These will be so sort after imho with a mintage of only 750, had to grab this PF70. This is only available in the 5 coin "long set", which were 3300 RRP and have sold for 5300 on ebay already, only a few for sale atm at 6-8k.
 


 
 
 

The 2005 Proof Sovereign fairy left another little coin on my door mat this morning. 


 
And thank you @StackSellRepeat for this shiny bar.

 
 

2018 1 oz gold Bird of Paradise.  Really interested in future artwork on this series.  2 2018 proof Rwandan Nautical Endeavors, and 5 BU Nautical Endeavors.

PGCS ms63 1918 Canadian. This year was badly treated and ms63 is as good as it gets apart from 1 single ms64 exception
 

A few pickups from the last few weeks. Starting with a nice piece of old Swiss gold together with a modern shiny Swan. The 10 francs Vreneli is not one you see so much of, compared to the 20 francs. 
Then some auction pickups. Nice haul of bullion Libertads in a mixed lot: happy to find some of the old and lowest mintages (1999 was second lowest year @95,000) and cool to see the transition from 1999 to 2000 in the Mexican coat of arms. In the same lot were a dozen Kookaburras - all in perfect shape. Most interesting was this 2008 in its original card. That happens to be my favorite Kook design ! 
A really characterful 8 reales from 1763 (with a chopmark in the globe), love these historical pieces. May not grade it though because NGC will probably find something to downgrade: these coins had a colorful life so i dont really care what the grade could be?.
Was after a different year (1860s)  - as i already have one, but picked up another 1870 Australian sovereign (this one probably better than my earlier one). 
Finally - at a price less than the going rate for the single proof, a 1989 double sov proof.  Did not realize how low (2,000) the mintage was - so hopefully these will go up over time.  This one is definitely headed to Numistacker for NGC??

1900 Danish 10 Kroner from The Coin Cabinet

Adding to my endeavor for a 1979 to current full Sovereign proof run, received the 2013 Gold Sovereign PF66 Ultra Cameo from the @Numistacker Collection.

Also got these a bit late buying them but got them from byb at the London coin fair today so no post to fuss about lol. They are so cute love them 

London coin fair buy. Got today 

Very nice 1843, there is just something about the smaller head pattern that I love 

 

Received this wonderful Proof Sovereign  today.  Very pleased. 
 

Was going to get some good ole silver bullion but when push came to shove, just couldn’t do it. Walk in walk out. Old school. Reputable shop as always. Just rebalancing the bullion - collectors ratio....maybe a topic for @Numistacker if he hasn’t already covered it. My silver early days bullion purchases satisfies my silver/gold 10%/90% ratio
1985 biscuits with the ice cream lady on the back....with an official receipt with open space to write the recepient’s name on
