Today I received one of the limited edition cards from Revolut.  It is a metal card weighing approx 18g and is gold plated on the top.  The underside where the car details are printed is plastic.
Since the card is only plated it has zero intrinsic value.  The only reason I purchase it was just for the novelty purpose since I have an interest in gold and this was something of a novelty.  I already have a couple of metal cards and it was the gold aspect which I was interested in.  I do not plan on using the card at all and I will keep the card frozen on the app to prevent use should anyone somehow manage to obtain the card details.  As a daily use card it isn't worth paying for since it doesn't do anything different from a standard plastic card and this card comes at a premium.
I've place it in a plastic sleeve to protect it and will put it away somewhere.  Not sure where yet.  I might store it with my certicard stuff.  Maybe in the future my great grand kids will laugh at how our generation carried around cards.
I've removed my name and card details from the pics.  Normally your name will be etched into the lower left corner and card details printed on the back.
This is not a sponsored post nor am I affiliated with Revolut in anyway.  Should anyone want to obtain one they are currently still available to purchase.  It is not cheap at £79.99.  You will need an account which is free but you will need to verify your identity and then simply top up fiat and purchase through the app.  The app is quite useful and I've been a customer for a number of years and if anyone wants to discuss the company you can open a new thread in the finance section.  This post is just about the gold plated card they are currently offering.

Welcome back Pipers

6 Lego style silver bricks from Ollie.  All stacked between real Lego bricks and topped off with my gold one.

Probably because they're more likely to be handled with people buying a few here and a few there where as with a tube of single dates they would have most likely been bought as a single tube and kept in the tube and not handled.

If anyone is after genuine Air-Tite brand caps, there is a link in my sig.

My 1/10.  Just need to get the first 3 lunars now to be upto date with them.
 

This is what I actually got today.  A couple of generic Lunar Horse rounds and some generic bars.  I've removed the bars from their packaging because I'm going to play with these.
 

 

I just had to get some to play with
 

 

A few more bits to add to my collection.  I know some people hate them, but I quite like the coloured stuff.
Btw. Fiji's are 2012 and 2013.  It's a shame they don't change the design.
 

A few Baird and Co rounds.
Looks like I might start collecting 1oz bars as well
 
 

The Pamps are just for the novelty.  Talk about huge premiums!!
 

 
First time getting Sovs.  Hopefully be a regular thing.
 

A few coins to help get me started.

Lunar 2 Monkey 1/2oz to 10oz set.

2014 and 2011 sets.

Lunar 2 Monkey 1/2oz to 10oz set.

2016 New Zealand Mint Lunar Monkey

Kazakhstan 1/4 2011 Lunar Rabbit

Lunar 1 BU 1oz

1kg Lunar 1 Rooster

2012 & 2013 China Lunar 1/10 Gold & 1 oz Silver Commemorative Coin Sets.
Looks like they changed from the wooden style to the plastic style box after the dragon.
 

Picked up a couple more of the 20g silver Rabbit Yuan Baos because I quite like them.
Also picked up some COAs for the bullion Gold Panda sets just for completeness.  I don't quite understand how their mintage on the COA works.  I thought it was based on the max number of possible sets based on the coin with the lowest mintage of any given year.  2011 says 71k sets despite 200k as the lowest mintage coin.  Must be the maximum number of COA sets that they will offer out which is a bit weird given that the other ones seem to be based on max possible full sets. Odd.
