Items from Dave's auction arrived today.
 
The Philly, ASE and Maple are dates which I don't own.  Nothing special really.  The Lunar Snake I already have.
 

 
These on the other hand were what I was after.  2009 Koala. The 2009 Vancouver Thunderbird.  4 X SBSS rounds.  I do have freedom girl but it's the Silver Shield release so this original SBSS release is a nice addition.
 

 
I didn't bother with the Mickey Steamboat release but decided to jump onto the Donald Duck one.  Hopefully it'll appreciate in years to come.  If not, maybe my son or daughter will get into Disney when they get older.

They'll stack nicely into an air-tites tube.

Some more pointless rounds for my collection and I've also joined the "slabbed club."  I can see why having graded coins is so popular.  The slab adds that extra bit of "prestige" to it.

Didn't know these were even dispatched.
 
2014 Somali Elephant Set
2012 Somali Elephant Set with some toning
 
2014 5oz Proof Panda.  The capsule has a small crack because someone at the mint didn't screw it down.  They just placed it ontop but unlike normal capsules, these need to be twisted to lock.

Kazakhstan Silver Irbis Snow Leopard in what looks like original mint sealed packet.  Not for much longer though
Another bullion coin from around the world to cross off.
 

Today these....

Proof Rwanda lion and 5oz wedge tail. Yes please

I didn't realise the Howling Wolf would come in a seal assay card.  I should have known the Taku would since the Kiwi did.
All importantly, I got another bag of gummy bears with the silver purchases above.
 
Also had a delivery from Air-Tites.  Bought their Bar Capsule and A26 Capsule albums.

I don't have any of the 1oz to compare although I do have some on order.  From what I've seen, they have a very small diameter.
Few pics to compare the BU 1oz, 10oz and HR 5oz.
