Dragonnumis

Today’s additions to the “year of covid collection”. Particularly like the Swan - almost proof-like finish.
 

Ummm, yeah you were absolutely right 🤩
 

Shiny Angels. first time I’ve had one of the original design Libertad. (1982). Its a great coin in hand with the edge lettering and eagle reverse.
 
 

Shiny ships and shiny dragons arrived🙂
 

Not something I would normally buy, but got a good price and it’s a great story. 48 tonnes of silver, one of the deepest, largest wreck recovery in history. About 20,000 mintage, wish it was a 1oz brit.

@terakris great coin. I’ve always been interested but wary of ancients, after seeing yours I might have to take the plunge 👍
Thanks to @BleyerBullion for latest arrival.
 
 

For me it all started with this coin-
sometime around 2001 I found this in my change, years before the current 50p popular collecting, didnt realise that the designs of coins even changed at that time.
This chance find has lead me to be a collector, stacker, become interested in history, the precious metals market, markets in general, the refining and mining industry. To find out about other countries and encouraged me to travel. Introduced me to interesting people and ideas ( including on here). Helped me appreciate the value of things and become non- wasteful, and countless other benefits.
 

Favourite reverse designs

Some birds of paradise flew in, as an easy little collection, really like the detail my photos don’t ever do justice.
 
Oh and another year added to the Kook date run, said I was stopping 🙄must try(resist) harder 😂

Some nice things arrived
thanks @paolo
ffor the silver bundle featuring my first Ethiopian coin... and thanks @SILVERFINGERfor the mining certificates. Not the usual thing I collect but really like them

I got one of them too...but the hyperinflation is a real possibility.
