Picked up an 1887 Sovereign. It's my first Jubilee head. Has a nice lustre.

Time machine eh! Useful item to have lying about. 
I watched Terminator Genisys last night so I should know! 

A lot of various coins from an auction at the big city. Mostly low value early 80's commemorative silver coins from royal Mint and others. 

Now here is why I went for it:

Silver and brass 1983 panda set with CoA. Didn't come cheap have to admit but still a good deal I believe. There is a bit of toning on both coins but otherwise they are in good shape.

Problem is the 150g proof Panda maxes the budget, a smidge over £6500.
Think I will go for it.  Will defo have to get some cotton gloves and wont be popping it out of the capsule

just put in a 8500 Euro offer on a 2016 150g Gold proof Panda on ebay.
The company has it on their website for 8500 Euro but more expensive on ebay (same company) so if they match their website price its mine
Only bought it on ebay as their website is all in German so hard to understand.

Only used a few times but has come in handy for those occasions.  Couple of slabs which were ?? but all OK after testing.
Good for anything still mint sealed.

1997 China Mint Traditional Chinese Auspicious Matters 1/10 Gold Coin which was highlighted by @mr-dead.  Big thanks.
Should be pretty much guaranteed authentic.

Anonymous Mint Bitcoin 1oz copper... I was curious about the design and had to see it up close. 1935 Crown... I just like the St George and the dragon theme at the moment...

Just got one of these in the mail... (i know different topic).
but... if silver hits £1000000, I'll probably be paying with some of these or equivalent. lol.
Anyway...
I got this banknote out of curiosity (£2 on ebay) and to remind myself that hyper inflation could lurk around the corner, if we don't pay attention.
Zimbabwe was the latest nation that had a currency hyperinflation and went out of control in 2007-2009

@ApisMellifera  Welcome to the trillionaires club!  
I gave one of the 100 trillion notes to my brother last year as a bit of a joke gift for his birthday. I don't think he 'gets' it, I was hoping it would perhaps spark his interest in its history or get him asking questions but nope. Not yet anyway.
