First gold purchase is a fact. 2,5 gram gold bar, and a Sovereign. I must admit, when you're used to the size of silver coins, these Sovereigns are almost disappointingly small... 😂 But I'm happy with my purchase anyway. 😊

Took me a while to catch one

If it's even remotely as addictive as silver is, I'm going to be facing some difficult moments here and there. 😂
This is a fine example of great things coming in small packages indeed. 😊

Small but perfectly formed 😋😋

I felt exactly the same........... but gold is very addictive

Sold my una and lion 2oz gold proof coin and used the profit to buy a 1761 Yeo Pattern Guinea in recent BSJ auction. I receive the coin today and really like it!

Another Napoleon 20 Lire - may not be all it seems!
 

My first purchase of 2020 courtesy of @AgD a lovely tube of ASE - 12x2016, 4x2017, 2x2018, 1x2015 and 1x2011 all in great condition.
Quick delivery and amazingly well packaged, thank you 👍🏻
Incidentally that's me now broke the 200oz mark for my little stack!! Took me a year or so but got there in the end......much more to come 😁

someone has started a new thread on the possible 2nd release for this series with photos of the coin,  if they are genuine its looking good !!!! 
 2020 Tuvalu 1 oz Silver Black Flag (The Royal Fortune)

Even Christmas Day didn't stop me from coin hunting! Really pleased to get my hands on one of these. A really pretty coin. 
1oz 999 Silver
St. Helena (with East India Company privy mark)

My missus makes sure we do the food shopping first before visiting here as she knows me too well

2019 has been an unusual year for me. Discovered this place, moved away from collecting to stacking. What will 2020 bring? Hopefully lots of reasonably priced gold and silver!! 
I’ve ended 2019 by starting a new silver stack. Thanks to @Jamesd, @StackSellRepeat And @arshimo2012 for this nice group of silver. Special thanks to @Jamesd for the 1916 Half Crown which was an additional Christmas present and is tempting me back to collecting but. I. Must. Resist. 

Last one of the year......
 Managed to sneak in 64 ounces into a 2 kg package......
 Usually only manage 62...

Just won this at an auction. I think it's a must have for any 10 oz bar collection. 🤓
 

Today I received my first order from goldsilver.be.
All good and well pleased.

I do like something different from the norm on occasion. Thanks @StackSellRepeat. Really nice coin.

I came rather late to the QB 10oz Silver party...

There were 5 Philharmonic. And some silver bars. And to make the order even the 4 1/20 oz Pandas and the 1/4 oz Maple and the silver were thrown in at spot. Even with magnifier, you can barely read the Pandas. I think I'm going to trade those for a 1/4 oz coin LOL. I like this design on silver bars. Silvertown makes them.
