My French Lunar snake arrived, bringing me up to date with this series and leaving only 2017 to complete it.

Gold, gold, gold.....
 
Today I received three alternative design sovereigns 2002, 2005, 2012  from @sovereignsteve.  
 
 
I also ordered a couple  of alternative design 1/4oz Britannia  2001, 2007, 2010 from another source.

"The Odd Couple" perhaps .... But these are this week's purchases. 
1921 Morgan Dollar and a bullion 2005 Sovereign. Always been after that 2005, can't justify buying the proof, so the bullion version will go into the collection; nice to compare to the 2002. 

eBay discounted purchases:
 

This arrived yesterday, now it needs friends.

Recieved my ebay purchases today, nice and quick delivery as It was only thursday the offer was on

Gold went down around £10 , then suddenly jump up  around £20. Interesting...

10 bullion sovereigns from Atkinsons
Ordered 'previously owned - any year' via phone.
Price matched HGM, and I asked if I could get years after 2000 if possible, just cause I like them shiney
Got x5 2015 and x5 2016 - all in individual capsules!!
Very happy with Atkinsons, this is the third decent sized purchase I've made from them and 100% customer hapiness each time.

we all make mistakes, what differentiates a better bullion dealer/seller is
that they are prepared to give refunds on every mistake. rule of thumb,
check every trade.

Well, the grand old lady turns 90 next month. No doubt, there will be gazillions of coins out to mark the event, so I went the other way and got these from the Queen's year of birth -1926.

1862 Shield from Atkinsons.  Not sure what's wrong with it as it was priced up cheaper than their usual shield sovereign price and worked out cheaper than HGMs Shield+postage price.

Enjoy your gold mate. It's the steady drip drip into the bucket that will accumulate your wealth. Also has the added attraction of being the same colour as honey. (As long as they are not townie bees that have been on the anti freeze)
