A few Australian coins c/o Shaun and arshimo2012

i just love the design on the thrupence [and silver sixpences ] with those acorns. 

i am immediately drawn to the gold. Looking at the number of likes for this photograph, i can see many other forum members are attracted too.   
This week i bought the Gold Eagle Heisenberg was selling and a couple of $20 Liberties from Hatton Garden Metals. I will have to put these up when they arrive.

30g 2017 Panda

Some proof Royal Mint lunars

i didn't buy these today but i ordered the little gems (in the making) very recently.
I supplied my own silver coins - 5 x milky coins for the two hearts and then got the Baby Dragon to boot!
Tremendous work - not complete as they need polishing and stamping but tremendous work from Backyard Bullion.

Not sure about this one. i got it from Hatton Garden Metals. It was advertised as a Jersey sovereign, then they rang me up to say it was Guernsey. This is not a coin i would normally buy. It is proof in a box with COA at HGM new sovereign prices.

i was weak. i consider this one of the nicest silver coins the Royal Mint has produced.
i got one of the 5oz proofs and 3 of the 1oz proofs. Thanks to @Jackobayliss

I saw Atkinsons were selling a few Johnson Matthey 1oz bars so i decided to get a few.
