Nice morezone, liking the 5oz HR. I reluctantly decided against collecting the 5oz because I didn't want to over stretch what I am collecting, but I think the 5oz might be a nicer size than the 1oz, as the diameter on the 1oz HR coins are tiny.

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.

@morezone

 

5oz HR is looking good, a nice size for a HR! That bar album looks like a pretty neat way to display bars so that you can flick through them.

 

Gold taku and timerwolf, I say put them in air capsules ;)

 

I think i might have to get myself one of those anniversary kangaroos if they are still around at the end of the yea. First I am going to try to get the 2014 gold elephant, and maybe the 2013 and 2014 Pandas. As well as a Perth Mint goat when it's released.

aaah, just received my coin gloves.. let the fondling commence! And this little beauty which only cost me £4 delivered. Might chuck it in some Cillit Bang, what do you reckon?

I wouldn't clean it if I was you.

It's quite expensive for a dime but I guess most of that was postage. Have a look here for spot value of coins but remember that it's priced coins at their full weight and make sure you change the price to pounds. http://www.bullionspotprice.com/silver

Edit: Just realised you might have meant £4 for the gloves too.

Love the Taku, where did you buy it from.

 

The only place ive spotted it is a german dealer and the premium was quite high.

The premium is high but it is quite rare.

 

http://www.auragentum.de/ Also stock it.  I've dealt with both companies and kettner was the slower of the 2 showing long lead times with most products.  Auragentum also stock the Kiwi.

Yeah it was £4 for just the coin and postage, gloves were separate. Not great if you look at £/oz but it's got enough detail and some nice character so I don't mind paying an extra £1 to save the hassle of looking too hard - a few decent ones I watched on ebay were going for £6+. I was joking about the cleaning :)

 

The gloves I got were Lighthouse, are the unbranded 10 packs from china the same quality or are the branded ones worth the extra? There were some nice watch shop gloves on ebay but they seemed a bit pricey for now

Proof Rwanda lion and 5oz wedge tail. Yes please :)

Was surprised to see the Proof Lion cheaper than what I could source from Dios111 for the BU version.

Got lucky with the WTE on bay. Price worked out just slightly over original price on PM's site.

You looking to purchase the 5oz WTE @ MZ?

Can't afford to go pre 2012 on the Rwanda myself :(

Would love a 5oz WTE but looks like I'm flat broke at the mo.  Bought way too much recently and there's still so much more to collect.
