Many thanks for the shout @CadmiumGreen A marvellous Britannia design the 2003, definitely in my top 3. 

I found this little beautiful Canadian 10c Coin in a lot of mixed silver! It’s currently winging its way back to Canada after selling for 3 figures, more than the whole lot of silver cost.

After a 6 week wait my Bairds came through, @ £420 a KG, some Birmingham Mint John Pinches Silver and a beautiful Queens Beast Pattern Set. A silver day...

That’s a counterfeit egg! 

Shows the dramatic rise when you notice such a significant growth in price with a relatively small weight coin! When you think about the value £600 savings would have lost by simply sitting in the bank since November... Hindsight, wonderful thing. 

They look so freshly minted! These were for sale at £589 at the end of last year... BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE a double sovereign. 

So glad you love it too! Definitely one of the nicest sets I’ve ever been lucky enough to buy... Makes me feel warm and fuzzy that it’s gone to a collector who will give it the love & respect it deserves 😉

I ordered start of last week. Gold was a 3 day turn around and I’ve just put a platinum order in so will see!

Great price and only 5 working days! Bairds...

A good post day!

This interesting Half Pound Walking Lady dripped through my doorstep on Saturday. The US answer to our 10oz coins I guess...
 
I do love a substantial coin and as soon as I saw it come up in a auction catalogue, I knew I had to bag it.
 
Not a coin you see every day, although I have come across a boxed, Proof version in the past.
 
This coin looks as if someone has attempted to clean in an abrasive way, shame. 
10p Coin For size comparison 

Many thanks to @LawrenceChard Chards @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer For this super purchase! A bit of an oxymoron, Sussie Gold Silver... Fabulous customer service when the system failed on the payment page, spot ran away, yet Chards honoured the deal at nearly a £50 loss to them.
 
They have also dispatched an order made via Platinum Deals that Chards offer exclusively for Platinum members, thanks @ChrisSilver. Again Chards offered a deal I suspect they may have forgotten about, as they set it up back when Spot was LOW! Yet they have honoured the deal without question, letting me buy the cheapest silver available in the UK! Sent today so watch this space...

A purchase from a new seller/member @Empire with thanks to the escrow service of @BackyardBullion 
Fantastic coin at a super price. 
I’m happy to recommend the new seller and BYB service, which was smooth with a capital ‘OO’.
I’m going to have to flip this one to fund a purchase I’m desperate for, if you are interested keep your eyes peeled or give me a shout!
 

Speechless...

Well done bud! I’ve been pining after the Beasts for months and months! Chards have offered a fantastic deal to Platinum members here... If you’ve brought to flip, I’m interested in the lion/dragon/unicorn.

I’m amazed the power this stuff holds over me. I’m utterly besotted by it.
Ive done a little panning, nothing serious and I’ve never found more than a few grains... 

However a few years ago I stumped up and brought a good sized chunk Australian nugget, spending just under a grand. 
 
I instantly fell in love with the unnatural weight, the cold smooth surface... Unlike a coin, I found myself repeatedly getting it out to hold, it’s tactical shape was utterly alluring.
 
Lucky as I am, I managed to secure 20g of small nuggets for under £30 a gram, from someone who needed money fast and made an offer that was impossible to turn down.
 
And that was me, really hooked! Since then my ‘stack’ has grown and grown... 
 
Some of my nuggets are the most beautiful things I own. Under a scope you can clearly see its structure, how it’s grown. Some with quartz crystals growing together creating images very pleasing to the eye!
 
People talk about ‘gold fever’, men who gave up everything during the gold rush days gone by... I get it! It has almost a supernatural ‘hold’ over me. 
 
Does anyone else have the bug? 
 
It’s good investment material with collectors paying significantly over spot price for the shape they fancy... 

Fantastic little auction buy. No silver sadly. I’ve only opened 25% tubes which mainly contain Uncirculated coins, apart from a couple of the old penny tube which was was full of used coins.

A few more auction buys of late! I managed to bag a kilo of pre 1920’s silver which was heaven to sort through and a couple of kilos of 1920 50% silver. Once I’ve finished sorting I’ll photograph and post as I have discovered some beautiful coins.
LOVE buying lots at auction, they are a gamble, the discovery of searching through them is full of child like wonder!

A lovely surprise in a mixed silver lot from an auction house arrived today...

Love this, thanks for sharing.
Imagine finding that on a dive, what a buzz! It almost doesn’t look legit it’s so well preserved. Amazing... 
Treasure hunting appeals to my inner child... I’ve just recently finished listening to the story of Oak Island https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.5573186
Such an unbelievable story, yet true.
The amount of treasures sank during the days of adventure and exploration on the high seas... Haven’t we mapped out more of the moon than our own ocean beds? Imagine the discoveries yet to be found!
