A set of 1921/22/23 peace dollars. I will probably take them out of the cases tbh, not a fan. 

And a grubby 1927 with a die crack (?) on the back in front of the beak. 

I already gave a it an acetone bath, but I can see after taking a photo it still has some greenish crud that needs to come off! 
Only need 3 more for the simple date run, if anyone has a 1928 going I might be interested, not many seem come up on ebay UK.

Haha, I accidentally posted it before I was finished 

My 1st piece

Scottsdale 10oz stacker x6

Two 3cents came today, some nice old American coinage 😆
photo seller took definitely didn’t do the small one justice 🌟 

Nothing special but got these little ladies today to fill a tube 😏

Had my eye on this coin design for a while! Happy to finally have one even if it does have a tiny ding on the edge.

Today (recently, lol) I received...
This fantastic and scarce coin which for the time being is the crown jewel of my LMU collection.
The coin is an 1848 Republic of Venice (San Marco) 20 Lire. A one-year edition only, as the revolutions of 1848-49 sweeping Europe generally, and the Italian States in particular, turned out to be fairly short lived.
A total of 5,210 of these absolutely breathtaking 20 Lire coins were minted (I believe in Turin, but I haven't confirmed). The obverse is the Lion of St. Mark, and value within wreath on the reverse.
One thing that I have noticed with graded pieces is there is a prevalence of Prooflike designations for these coins. I've tried to capture the reflective, prooflike nature of this coin but its really difficult to do in photos. In hand, it is amazing to see. A very, very beautiful mirrorlike finish. Angle it in the sunlight the right way and you could signal an airplane with it! One of the nicest coins I've had the privilege to add to the LMU collection and one of the very few raw coins I would consider sending off for grading to validate and conserve it.
 
 

Always wanted some old school JM bars - these are so nice and weighty in hand 

Recieved today two belters for the collection 
1825 Ms63 1/2 sovereign 
1809 MS63 third guinea 

Two - Platinum Jubilee £5 gold crowns only issued in the "2022 annual set" with the Jodie Clark portrait
Mintage of just 100 and both in PF70. Beautiful weighty pieces in hand 
"honi soit qui mal y pense"  spoken by the medieval ruling class in England, meaning "shamed be whoever thinks ill of it", usually translated as "shame on anyone who thinks evil of it" It is the motto of the British chivalric Order of the Garter, the highest of all British knighthoods
Hopefully will be an in demand coin in years to come  one for the retirement pot  

Killer JM bankers bar with the most amazing natural toning

Thanks to @1stsovereign and @ilovesilverireallydo for these beauties!

1927 Peace Dollar for the date run, and a 1oz James Bond bar directly from RM. 



Disappointingly the back is all scratched up, they have agreed to swap it but obviously I have to pay to return it, which is rather irritating!

That would ruin your cereal, better keeping them separate imo
