After being away with work for 3 weeks these were waiting for me at home. I absolutely love unboxing!

250 is a new gem I’ve come across 🥳

2 Rwanda Nautical Series 2019 proofs from Dios and 3 x Batavia from @arshimo2012

@BackyardBullion @CadmiumGreen
I will second an endorsement for this company.  They make all these items themselves, and do a great job!  
Here are some black stands I use for 10oz Queen's Beasts bullion, and 5oz proofs (same stand fits both):

Got my hands on these bad boys today... Along with the 64 Kennedy half dollars, never thought Silver would be my thing... They're nice but my heart is with the posh pounds (Sovereigns).

Finally got up-to-date on my 10oz Queens beasts, just in time for the next one . 
 
Bull arrived courtesy of a Lithuanian contact 😀

Going on travel regrettably results in the following...
Three Seljuk Sultanate Pale Gold Dinar (1072-1092 AD) VF (Crusades). These coins were struck in Pale Gold meaning that it has about an 80% Silver to 20% Gold ratio.
Dinar #1

Dinar #2

Dinar #3

 
And here we have two Prince Albert 2019 Celebration Sovereigns, in all their magnificent glory and accompaniment for his two Queen Victoria’s received earlier!

One from The Royal Mint...

One from @TheCoinConnection!!


 
Also, picked up a random selection Half Sovereign...receiving a 1987 sadly abused proof.

And last, but my no means least, from the finest silver pouring craft-master himself, Mr. @BackyardBullion, a beautiful 2019 100g The Silver Forum Bar!!

 

Thanks @kneehow2018. Nice bar is the Britannia bar. And thank you @onlyroadtoheaven for the bright and shiny Sovereigns. I do like the commemorative Privy mark. 

Received 2 deliveries today 3 half sov shield backs from @silversurf thanks for these as I have been after some for a while👍
Then 2 half sovs from @Pete again thanks so much really happy with these too 👍

2019-W Reverse Proof Palladium Eagle arrived today.  Absolutely gorgeous coin.  I missed out on the proof last year.  I had added one to my cart and in the time it took me to enter my credit card info, it sold out and I was terrible out of luck.  I really wanted that coin, so despite the increase in palladium prices since last year and the increased mintage this year, I was not going to be denied this years issue.  I'm not disappointed  

If I ever have one made its going to be called 'Moist Maker'

I am the PROUD OWNER of 
THE TSUNAMI

 
 

The two gorgeous "babies" revealed!
 
Thanks to @BackyardBullion 

Congrats AgD hope all is OK. 👍

Thanks @CookieMonster for these five Inaugural year date modern Libertads.

1st Ebay pickup. 
 
 

Thanks to @BackyardBullion for creating this Gairsoppa shipwreck recovered silver hand poured bar and round.
The bar is just over 1kg at 1075g
The hammered round is also Gairsoppa silver at 5.05oz and is designed as a tribute to the Bombay Mint stamp on the orignal 1000+ oz bars sunk then recovered.
The wooden box is an ebay cheap one with a 3D printed insert I designed, printed then flocked for a smooth velvet feel.
The QR code takes you to BYB's pouring video on YouTube and it also contains a micro SD card with hi-res images, videos and forum links to the bars creation process for provenance.
