Poker win again yesterday!
 
Got my hands on this beauty. 1889 Melbourne full Sovereign. Although not rare not many in this condition available at a few quid over spot. 
also added better photos of the toned half shield. 

Another Sov to take the total to 6.

its a 1837 - 1897 diamond jubilee medal - this is the smallest one and weighs just under 10 grams:) the other side is prettier! 
 

I thought this was cool that it had its original packing from 1897:)

Is this coin real? I see a lot of these on ebay but mostly worn to nothing or very expensive. I forgot how much I paid. I think around $15 and not on ebay.
 

This 1859 Full and half sov, put together as a set ... very happy 😊 
 

Some Japanese trade dollars to add to the set of others!
 

Managed to get this cheap off ebay, time to learn more about sexy gold.
 

Platinum baby!!!
Could be tempted to sell my Brexit Britannia 🤔 

Also got this today. In my previous post, by “Car Boot” i may have meant royal mint tour. And by “picked up” i may have meant stared at and drooled through a glass cabinet. Anyway this is an ACTUAL pick up. Got two, going to trade one with a friend who goes in a few months when the strike your own is a different coin. 
 

Picked up a few more Intaglio 2 oz High Relief Modern Tributes to round out the collection.  Their quality is always top notch and I have yet to see any Intaglio mint coins spot.
The St Gaudens 1cent (top left), Peace Dollar (top right), and Morgan are new.  Unfortunately I didn't have a capsule yet for the Morgan.
 

Just a few extra Crowns for the collection...
1978 from @trp

Thankyou both 🙂
 
 

Ooooh , they look like willys

Arrived this morning, 2012-P Acadia National Park 5 oz silver ATB.  And finally my order from Coin Connection arrived with the 2 oz silver Una and the Lion and a 2018 Snowman silver proof 50p.  I'm guessing it took them a lot longer then was expected to get some Una's that didn't have issues.  The Una is fantastic and just makes me drool even more when I see pictures from some of our members who were decisive enough to purchase a gold one.  Those are truly items worthy of being called "My preciousssss."

Just a little one to add to the stack and scratch that itch... Mrs Gee's brithday coming up and holiday planning is resulting in a slow start to 2020's stacking! 😤
 

Filled a hole in my ATB collection and a couple of single specimens from series I like.  2013-P Fort McHenry 5 oz silver ATB, and 2019 Perth Emu and Dragon & Dragon.
