1825 George lV Sovereign Bare head NGC AU53 
1821 George lV Sovereign Laurel head 

Typically I don't go for proof coins but sometimes you see something you have to have. 
 2016 RCM Canada Geese on a Maple Leaf Silhouette They're only available until the end of July so act soon if you like these.
 
I really wish the RCM would do a 1 ounce and 10 ounce bullion coin of a Canada Goose every year with a new design. I think an RCM Canada Goose could be every bit as strong as Perth Mint Kooks.
 
 

Dutch Groupie 😉🤤

First forum purchase arrived today, couple of very nice TSF 1Oz bars from @BackyardBullion

A couple of tiddlers!
A 0.9999 gold 1 gram Canadian 50 cent Maple Leaf dated 2016 and a 0.999 gold 1 gram Chinese 10 Yuan Panda dated 2017  (both compared to a GB 5p piece).

A trio of 1Oz Valiants and a full tube of 2017 Voyaguers - fancied a tube of something (have been a bit of a magpie pciking up things in 1's and 2's as I spot something pretty) an these came in at a good price/nice balance for me.
Think the valiants look really nice in the flesh, might have to look at getting a 10Oz.

Can't get anything decent with the light at the moment! 

1839 Proof Shield - PR63 DCAM
This is a lovely coin, and I believe the rarer alignment from the una set. 

Wow amazing finds   all my local antique shops are either of complete junk or overpriced 

A nice Saturday turned into a perfect one. A trip to Saltwick Bay with my Wife and the dogs. followed by a couple of nice finds in my now favourite Whitby tat shop, and best of all,  fish & chips on the way home. 
 





 
 
 
 

2 very special deliveries today. I was had pretty much decided I wasn’t going to keep the gold 50p set, but now I have my hands on it, it’s stunning, I have no idea what to do!!! And the Queen Vic Sovereign was always a keeper

Gold standard coin from richatthecroft 
Thank you

This little birdie walked yesterday back into it's nest: first NZ platinum coin, mintage 350, 3 graded but only one as top of the pop.
Big thanks to @Lr103 for helping in the acquisition and @Numistacker for preserving it. 

Today I made a mount for the silver boat I received from ilovesilverireallydo.
Still haven't cleaned it yet

The base is made from "Olive wood" 

Thanks @richatthecroft
Cant get enough of the libs. Nearly as bad as my panda addiction 😂

A 2018 Double Sovereign with the “Crown 65” Sapphire mint mark.

I have had the opportunity to grab this Tiffany Art coin from a LCS at a screaming low low low price that I could not miss it !
This is the 2011 "Manueline" . An architectural and decorative style which developed in Portugal in the late XVth and early XVIIth centuries. and which associates traditional Gothic structures with Romanesque, Moorish or Oriental inspired ornamental sculptures.
The coin is not as impressive as the 2019 Khmer (not the same advanced minting technologie) but still really beautiful.
This coin sells around 800£/1000£ on ebay. I got it for the tenth of these prices

That’s a great start. It will look the business when the other nine follow. #happyhalfsovereignhunting...

Received my first 1/2 sovereign for the case and it's a proof many thanks @richatthecroft

And back from more work travel with the latest received. Primary theme here is old gold...went with some Numismatic varieties given the rise in gold prices.
A great pick up from @gold. He is an excellent seller of this, I would go as far to say, almost EF 1818 George III Gold Half Sovereign, at a very reasonable price.

Also, a VF 1793 George III Gold Spade Guinea. This is my first Guinea and I am really enjoying these old milled coins.

Coming back to the twentieth century, a beautiful lucky dip 1979 Gold Sovereign BU. 

And we also received a gorgeous 1997 1/4 oz Gold Britannia Proof. 

Lastly, picked up five of the latest 2019 China 1 oz Silver Long-Whiskered Dragon Dollar Restrike (PU)...one of which is already spoken for by @kewlbeenz! 

Fantastic 2005 1/4 oz Proof Britannia from @Pete

Finally finished my planned date run thanks to @DavePanda for the ever elusive 2010

1/10 Au from Davepanda

Another new masterpiece for my collection
 

Got my first Victorian Half Sovereign Shield Back today, thanks to @Pete
