Many thanks to @rob6for my Christmas draw coins. Lovely pieces, and perhaps the start of a silver collection for me? 😁

TIFFANY ART Isfahan 5 Oz Silver Coin
Finally arrived in the mail. Such a gr8 looking coin.
The presentation box and COA were as cheap looking as anything I've seen. I know that I didn't pay for the pkg per se, but my goodness.

Ok not exactly got it today but 9+ hours of fun later...

Some silver (1 oz) and gold (1/10 oz) for the kids... Lunar II birth years...
Will try and explain the differences in gold and silver prices too. I think for the 7 yo I will have to explain relative to LOL dolls!

Went searching for a 2003 Proof Brit and ended up with these - 6 x 1/2oz satin proofs all dated 2007.  
Closeups, satin finishes and noob photography skills do make them look super toned but they're all as clean as whistles - most pleased!
All down to a near 25% contribution courtesy of @BullionBob and the Xmas raffle 🤩
Thanks Bob for this and @trp for taking over the raffling business from the aforementioned BB!
 

from @Alun
Just need to work out how to take pics of silver.

A Massive shout out to @arshimo2012 managed to get this to me in under 24hrs 
I did wonder if he hand delivered it except for the fact I saw the postman 
Super impressed and now the collections are complete in @Alun amazing boxes 
Now to start on the avenger series I have the hulk now and will start slowly building up 

1999-2002 Silver Proof Piedfort £1 Heraldic Emblems Set   It is all too easy to believe that, in repeating the identical designs as an immediate follow-up to the 1994-97 set, the Royal Mint merely displayed a startling indolence within its product development department. That, however, would be to ignore the cynical contempt in which it holds its customers and the cursory eyebrow which it twitches in the direction of numismatic innovation.   It was in 1999 that I decided to never again buy anything directly from the RM - a move which has saved me literally thousands of pounds over the last 25 years. The overwhelming majority of RM silver releases offer a return on a par with that available by buying a new car from a showroom. Collectors of Piedfort round pounds should be aware that buying sets can be as much as 30%+ cheaper than buying the individual coins in today's market.   That being said, I do like these designs, especially the 2002 three lions of England, one of my true favourites amongst the 33 different reverses minted. I am still looking for a few years should anybody be able to assist - notably the 2009 and 2014 shieldbacks.

Big thanks to @Jamesd that traded me this fantastic looking piece of kit. Box by @Alun. I don’t think I could ever sell it! Awesome. Just awesome! 
 

Been looking forward to getting this a massive thank you to @Alun
As many others have previously  said top end work the box is amazing 
Now the task of filling it for my son any cheap coins for sale please pm me 
 
 

So my little group order turned up curtesy of @BackyardBullion and it just reminded me, I’d thought I’d add a couple of 2020 Czech lions.
I’m almost believing there was some plan for me to win the 2019 czech lion in last months draw, as the urge to go on another date run is now prodding me in the ribs 😂
 

A present to myself after another heart op. What a year 2020 has been!!
Two lovely coins that left Belgium yesterday and arrived today. Hopefully we get a Brexit deal for silver at least

Big shout out to @StBeesSilver for another addition to my superheroes heads collection . Stunning work. 

2016 Last Round Silver Piedfort Pound   I consider it a catastrophe of cataclysmic proportions that this beautiful design was barely in general circulation before we were subjected to the dodecagonal coup with its repetitiously hideous usurper.   The reverse features the four heraldic beasts, as produced by the Royal Mint in the 2003 Pattern Set. The coin is divided into four sectors, showing the lion of England, the unicorn of Scotland, the stag of Northern Ireland and the dragon of Wales. The Imperial Crown of Saint Edward is depicted centrally with the initials of designer Bishop Gregory Kenneth Cameron in the field below the Welsh dragon.   This chunky fellow had a mintage of 3,449. Despite absurd claims by one mendacious member, the coin is unavailable at close to spot.

Thanks @ChrisSilver and the Silver Forum for my October 2020 premium members prize! 
 

It would appear that we are in the same boat!
The Mrs "More silver? How much was that?".
Me " Errrrmmm only about twenty quid. Nice isn't it? It's for the kids really".
The Mrs "Hmmmm....."

This is most definitely my new favourite. Massive props to @StBeesSilver for this one. After being inspired by @Jamesd’s marvel weapons I thought it would be amazing to have a Black Panther mask boy did it exceed my expectations. Loved the pics but its even better in the flesh!

5 1oz 2021 Gold Britannia's
 
 

Received partial order today from The European Mint I have ordered full tube 1 oz Gold Greyhound coins but only received 7 and 3 more on the way.........

Think I may have a problem 🥰
 
Thanks to all that have helped fuel my addiction!! 
 
 

Got that perfect dragons set. Usually i'm not into sets, but price was too sweet.
 

And that concludes my 1oz gold BU Queen’s Beast series 🎉 
Lets see if the RM can top it with the next one (Nothing like the Landmarks of Britain series please!)
