This week
2kg of old silver coins... interesting to look through, some nice designs and history

Well, I had my display name changed from SilverGlutton (which was just plain ugly) to 
SilverToday which I find more suitable for all of us lol. Anyhow, a few days back I bought
a 2024 proof-like 1/10oz Gold Niue Phoenix Coin that I showcased here at TSF and I really liked the 
design but ohhh so hard to see well enough so I decided to buy the 1oz Gold version which I received yesterday.
Of coarse everyone's coins in their stack/collection look much better in hand and so does this 1oz Gold Niue lol.
I can't say enough of just how attractive this proof-like 2024 1oz Gold Niue Phoenix Coin with frosted relief really is.
Truly remarkable imo. And the fact it's production was limited to only 10k pieces makes it even sweeter.
Compared to the pix below the Gold color is much more pronounced in hand. 
 
 

Nice 1985 proof half. Complete with R.M. case and CoA (took me a while to hunt down). First year of the 3rd portrait by Maklouf.

Big thanks to @JohnV66

A nice 1/4 Yale courtesy of @James32 and three nice Gillicks courtesy of @Midasfrog - all lovely coins, thanks guys 👍

As everyone's so interested to see this gem of a piedfort I just received from HGM....!




 

A trio of Vicky Sovs. Surprisingly good condition for bullion sovs close to spot
 
 

Nicest Rocking Horse in the collection so far. 

It's been a while, moving house and having a car stolen put metals on the back burner for a few months but these beauty's arrived this morning 🤌🤌

From @Brit2023.
This lovely sovereign. In better condition than i was expecting. Very happy with it 😊. 

Today, I received a beautiful 1oz Silver Merlin coin, and I couldn't be more thrilled!
Feeling lucky and enchanted with this new treasure in my collection! ✨🔮

Many thanks to @silversky for the Red Dragon of Wales. One of my dream coins that I'm thrilled to add to my collection. And thanks also to my partner @Lolski01 who bought me my first silver eagle from @gji25, a truly beautiful coin!
 

Today I added another to...

Gold Mark Kaiserreich - one to go for a bag of one ounce fine.

A big thank you to @silversky for this beautiful 10oz Perth Mint Year of the Monkey. I think that this 2016 is possibly the prettiest of all the  Chinese Zodiac range and she joins her little 1oz sister 🐵🐵.

Thanks to @JamesH for this great looking coin🤔😮

Haven’t posted here in a while thought this was the perfect coin too 😬
I missed out on this coin 3 years ago on a coins of the realm auction 😖
but I found it this weekend and bought it for half the price it went for 3 years ago 🤩
it was always meant for me 🥳
 

Nice cartwheel on this one.

Picked up a sizable collection of coins today. There's a few gems hiding amongst a lot of plated copper, this being my favourite 😍
Needs closer inspection to see how good she is beneath the capsule

2013 BU Sovereign - Struck on the Day - 60th Anniversary of the Coronation
Picked this up to add to my SotD collection.  It has some pebble dash unfortunately, but was a good price and you don't see too many around.

A little gift from the wife to continue the maple run. 

2024 Royal Mint D-Day 1/4oz Proof
Just when I was getting comfortable hating the RM, they do this to me.  It's an awesome coin.  Spotless, and what a beautiful design!

 

In addition got 10 nice 30g 2024 Pandas at an excellent price - @theman73

 

 
 

So i managed to win the auction on this unique silver work of art. In addition i was feeling holy and also picked up a cross from @iacabu 
    

Well the PF64 1923SA is here. A very big thank you to @JamesH for the heads up on it and a super big thank you to @Clockpuncher for making the purchase possible. I'm going to use the NGC pic's only because the camera on the phone is poor and I'm a bit busy to set up the Canon up.

Another day another panda.
