Special edition arrived. I prefer the old 5 oz box. Sadly the coin has a small discoloured spot and RM forgot to include the COA...
 

A very European set of Mexican pesos received over the last few days. Got the 50 from @SVcollector in Greece, the veinte from CDMA (France) on ma-shops.com and the rest from Kurpersky (Germany) on ma-shops. So thanks to @AgD for the link.

The trick with spotted silver is just to cover it up with something interesting so nobody notices. See below illustration 🤣

I do miss owning silver, all mines gone now except for Una 😔

Wow where were those sold?

Thank you @InvestInCoins888 for this wonderful Isle of Man Proof Sovereign set and also, for helping me out by not only the offer of a lower price, but also holding it until I got funds together to pay for it. 
The little free gift sent with the set was a nice surprise 😄
Also, thanks to the Forum members who bought and are currently looking after the items I sacrificed from my collection to secure the set.  Hope you all enjoy your purchases, for now, I’ll be pestering you all in due course, for them back 😉
I very much appreciated the advice taken from a Forum member I have much respect of prior to making the purchase: ‘Rich,  the Reverse is a little bit Marmite’. But who could deny that the Machin Obverse is an enduring classic.
What I like about this particular set is its completeness- Sovereigns untouched and sealed in the presentation case, COA, original invoice for £388.50! and even the little waxed envelope the Jeweler supplied it in!
Anyway, enough waffle, here’s the lovely 46 year old set.











 

You cannot see the detail in this pic at all, but in person it is subtly wonderful.
Received today, and am very happy with my 007 Bond 5oz'er.

Its certainly rocketing today. All this new debt will have to be inflated away. Glad I didn't get round to selling a couple of half sovs last week.

Atkinsons closed  - "Pre-order now - Price fixed now - Postage Paused"
Chards closed - "clearing backlog" of orders 
BBP - closed for order reopening tomorrow
UKbullion - "Due to strong demand and to fulfil current orders we have decided to pause trading until Tuesday"
ATS - "Due to restrictions in place as a result of CoVid-19, we are currently unable to accept orders and our offices are closed. "
HGM - less stock than vanessa feltz's salad box
Royal Mint Bullion - only dealer who appears OK for stock and OK for delivery
Funny times we are in, just goes to show no good waiting until when the crisis is here to stock up if the shelves are bear or system cannot/wont deliver
