Thanks @5huggy
 For more shiny stuff!

Trades are so much more fulfilling than buying. Thanks @ogb777 for these two lovely coins.

Iran 1/2 Pahlavi from 1967 (I hope I got the year right! 😬). Just won in an auction.
 

My 2019 1/2 oz Mexico Libertad Gold Reverse Proof coin. 
I bought both 1oz and the 1/2oz for 2018 because of its first year of issue.
I can only afford 1/2oz for now. 
Very beautiful coin. 

am sure am not the first or the last to do this, but today i completed my set of ms70s, 200th vicky and albert sovs ,,,,,, ......brought over a few of weeks from the forum, very easily from   @terakris and @Osborne01652 

Not from just today, but over the last few weeks or so I've been adding to my 1977 collection, so here are the following (all being sent to NGC/NCS for grading and conservation)
1 Chervonetz (Moscow and Leningrad mints) Thanks to @augur
200G Netherlands (Proof) Thanks to @Numistacker
Krugerrand (Proof)
150 Rupees Keeling Cocos Islands (Proof & BU)
Most came with original packaging which is always a bonus

 
 

Big thanks to @5huggy
 for selling me these lovely 1oz coins! Great addition to the collection and pleasant transaction. Even came with a free tube

Last couple of pick ups this week. Glad I hunted around as got these at spot price. Finally over 1oz of gold which was my aim for the end of the year 😁

Some pretty hard to get hold of Australian Privy Kookaburras..with an American twist!


 

My Favourite Queens Beast's have arrived Coinster's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I received some cheep coin capsules to tidy up my gold stash in my lovely new box that @Alun made me. 
Work well on the full sovereigns and quarter Brit but a little rattle on the 1/2’s. 

Another top grade ticked off the list

Just this rat coin It's a pretty nice coin compared to the others in the series.
 

today I got the Gold Libertad 2019 Reverse Proof  to my 2 x  5 oz Silver Libertads Reverse Proof 2017 and 2018

 

There are some things that are just way too interesting to pass on.  This came at a bit of a premium but I loved it. Look at the detail! And it’s 1944! 

In those times you could be studying needlework in the Institutes of Technology! 
Odd there are no hallmarks but tests fine. 

Actually received Saturday - BUT WOW thanks @terakris
 

 

Well it’s not every day that you get something very hard to get on your wish list popping up. 
 
this beauty was saved for me by one of my regular dealers and got it at spot. Sadly no boxes but still an awesome find. 
 
Gold Mercury Dime 1/10oz

At a fraction over Spot, these were too nice to pass up, a nice little addition 😊

Had to show this after triple checking it was legit, 18k, 40g, 36 diamonds adding up to over 1 tcw.....Beautiful, and appraised in 1994 at over $7000.

Got some treasure 😄☠️
 
 

Been picking up individual PAMP silver bars when I see them for a decent price, and especially after the older Chiasso bars. A few other silver pickups - proof and BU slabbed QB Mortimer Lions; a couple of 1982 Engelhard Prospectors ( like these so much more than the ASEs that led to their demise in1987) and a stack of the stunning Korean2018  tigers. 
Only one piece of gold - but a real collectors Libertad 1/4 PF70 from 2013.  Really low mintage that year. I try to buy raw Libertad gold quarters and grade them, instead of buying already graded - but could not resist this one !   

Not a good day for photography here today.
1982 half sov.
 

Just because
