Hey, you're welcome. I got two of the 1900 Roosters today. Now I am only missing the 1901. I have seen these Quetzales only once since I am collecting. Really hard to find. I have sold my 20 Franga's and Libra's already unfortunately.
I'll let you know in case I'll find any.

@KookaburracollectorAre you stil missing the 1900 Rooster mate ?

Today my bars have seen a bit of light after being in the dark for quite a while.

1986 IoM Gold Proof Angel
Many thanks to @jultorsk for this splendid wee Angel. 
Before the Tower Mint took over with their twee transangel design, the Pobjoy Mint in Sutton produced beautiful Manx coins involving good old-fashioned toxic masculinity.
The world was a happier and better place then.

Stunning 1912 Canda $10 dollar gold coin rare low mintage only 1912 - 1914 with the 1912 being the rarest, brought to you in high definition mint state lustre!! 
Canada’s First Gold Coin
Canada produced its first gold coin in 1908, but that was a UK Sovereign.
Four years later, came the $10 gold and it was unmistakably Canadian.
Each coin is struck on a 900 Fine Gold 26.92 mm planchet and weighs 16.72 Grams (.4838 oz Fine Gold). The obverse features a crowned portrait of King George V. The reverse bears Canada's Coat of Arms which was originally adopted in 1868
Almost all of the gold used for the coins came from the nearby Klondike River Valley in the Yukon Territory, the site of one of the largest and most frenzied gold rushes in history.
Short-lived
With the outset of the First World War, the Canadian gold coin program was closed in favour of gold bars.
As Canadians fought the war, its government took a tight hold of its gold reserves, with almost all of the coins produced for circulation never reaching the public.
Instead, they were tucked away in the vaults of the Bank of Canada.

Today's delivery, the 2002 half I have been after for ages! Also a beautiful selection of 925 coinage. The mint lustre on the half crowns and the shillings is just incredible. As much as I love gold, there is something so incredibly exciting about uncirculated 1900s early coinage! 😍
