1986 Proof Silver Eagle -- I think @Numistacker will like this. 1st year but still high mintage 1.4 million.

1965-70 Proof Sets -- only the Kennedy's are 40% silver. The 65-67 are called Special Mint Sets. Just showing a few examples.

!976 Silver Proof Set -- all 40% silver.

The pictures make the coins look smudgy and toned but they aren't

My first order with @ElDoradoCoinsdotDe very happy. All present and correct, coin/cases in good nick, well packaged, will be using again.  

 

Also loving that the German for coin gloves is basically 'money hand-shoes'

 

Great stuff...gotta have those supplies if we want to collect proper 

Went to my local coin shop this morning, since I am filling in some US coins.

1992 & 2001 Silver Proof Sets : 1992 was the first year they introduced these. 90% silver on the half, quarter, and dime. 1999 was the first year which included the State Quarters. That set a bit expensive. The 2001 has the NY quarter, my birthplace NY City. Eventually I want all silver sets up to present.

1942 & 43 Liberty Halfs ; ok condition. I have the 1945. I need the 1940, 41, 44 now.

He has very few British coins. These he gave me free. I thought the Diana was nice, too bad it's 1967 and not 1961 her birth year. 

I have a question about Canadian coinage. Were there ever shilling, sixpence, crowns, etc in Canada?

I was so jealous of @BackyardBullion ...he has one.

Plus I have the MS 65 Dimes from 1940-45 so I might collect this run in halfs also. Not graded though because they are very expensive, just in reasonable shape.

I might have overpaid. But the melt value is about $6 alone. I hope it's in condition as shown.

90% silver

Oh...by the way. I play a game called League of Legends. They have hero in it called Wukong

My pick ups from the London coin fair. The parcel they're resting on is super secret squirrel delivery from @BackyardBullion (I'll be doing a dedicated reveal video). He even included £2.50 for the saved postage

 

The florin looks nice. A little dinged up but who could pass up an old one.

The Kennedy is 40% silver. I'll be getting a nice shipment in of Kennedy Halfs on Monday. Look for them here

Just picked up this ugly beauty. The 10oz 2016 Monkey King, with a mintage of 333 pcs.

 

 

 

It's cute. Do they make 1 oz size and not colorized?

First coin came in from this month's order. I bought it on eBay Thursday and it arrived this afternoon. They sent it just in a letter.

I recommend this company to US buyers. The coin is in perfect condition. No milk spots or anything. Shiny like new. Pictures may not show it

Hello John, walked into the Perth Mint and bought them over the counter. One of the many benefits of living in sunny Perth.

That explains it

Each shield features a unique landmark from the eight states it passes through. A good size series.

Yeah...8 is good. I was thinking a lot more and that would be too much.

Just ordered a Route 66 silver shield, the first in a series of eight. Should be a nice series to collect.

Oh..I didn't know it was only 8 in that series. I thought there would be a lot more and that made it undesirable for me. Thanks

Hello, a very nice 1902 Brirtish proof sovereign arrived today to add to the collection of older proof coins. 

 

 

Nice one...is that the first year of Edward VII ?

Got the 1941 on Saturday but my friend gave me my mail late

Now I have the war years, at least P mint. There is also S & D. I was actually going to sell the two I already had but decided to complete this small sample instead. 

It is commonly called a Mercury Dime but it's actually a Winged Head Liberty Dime. 1946 starts with the Roosevelt Dimes. Dimes are 90% silver up to and including 1964.

Thanks @BackyardBullion

Got the Iron Man today...there are six in the series, I believe. Two more yet to come.

They coincide with movies, so it could be Ant Man/Wasp next and Captain Marvel  early next year, not sure.

Deadpool is a different studio and license.

Sorry for all the pictures people as I just got this 1902 Matt Proof short set and I love it haha. I think I will get it graded as soon as I can afford it as I think there is a couple of crackers in there.

 

What a great set

Hello, sovereign day today. Picked up the 1985 proof sovereign and the three coin 1983 set with the 1/2 sovereign, sovereign and £2 coins. So have filled in a few gaps in my QE II sovereign date series. 

 

Gorgeous 

I wanted to get some wearable silver. Really expensive compared to raw silver. 5 g all together

The ring is simple but I like the design.

Actually, I have already some Sterling earrings and one gold. I got the Squirrel & Acorn set because I only have one ear pierced, so I get 2 earrings this way.
