Q: What do you do when your stepson decides to start selling his stack to buy a flat?
A: You buy of course.
So today I received 2 x 1oz 2016 gold Britannias.
First impressions are, a bit heavier than half sovs.

Received the last bit of items while I was away...gold! 
From auction I won a 1869 Young Victoria Shield Sovereign, Die 33 (AU58) courtesy@BackyardBullion (I am beginning to think that he has all of my earnings from the overseas trip)...
 
Also received a 1987 1/4 oz gold Britannia proof. Regrettably no COA and box, but pristine condition before I put it in a proper  capsule.
 

A 1901 Half sovereign from Cambridgeshire Coins .

2  half sovereigns from Ebay this morning only for the seller to refund the monies this evening , his pathetic excuse was he didn't want Paypal holding his funds until June but he is ok with Paypal holding onto my money for 7 working days . Would you give him negative feedback ?

A few QB pickups : 13 bullion silver Clarences and a few 1/4 gold Bullion QBs: looking for a nice Clarence and a better Unicorn than my current ones to send in for grading....in pursuit of the elusive MS70s.  
As many have commented already - the Clarence Bull silver coins are nice in the hand - none of the sharp ragged edges of the earlier designs in the series.  I will put 3 into deep capsules and keep 10 in a tube for storage.  Will decide what to do once the 10x designs are in the bag.  Also a couple of slabbed Clarences for fellow collectors here on the Forum. 

A little bit of Gold nothing to fancy

Received this little gem today. 1 Proof Sovereign.

Ok so a huge box arrived and amongst all the packing was this

Which contained some of these randoms:
Rising Mermaid

Giraffe (gift for my daughter)

Coloured Dog (gift for my Son and TBH a LOT nicer than i thought it was going to be)

Box of dragons

Rum Runner

Stack of 2018 Kooks

Stack of 2018 Maples

Stack of Kangeroos

Stack of double dragons (new ones... these are REALLY nice!)

 
Some are for me, some are for friends who asked for stuff, some will be for sale when I get a chance.
Now the fun is over, back to the day job

Picked this up for £120 can’t complain.

Some silver for a change.

...and I received a very nice 1857 Shield Gold Sovereign from @MikeSol! Thanks Mike for a great addition to my Shields!

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. 

This had £135 knocked off the original price wanted and couldn’t resist.....free shipping...

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.
