Today I Received.....


Message added by ChrisSilver

The Today I received section is for private individuals to share items they have purchased for their collection / as part of their investment.

The Today I received section is not to be used for businesses to promote their business. Trade members and those operating as a business in the eyes of the forum are invited to enquire about a Dealer Sub Forum, where you may start your own Today _____ received topic to post your commercial purchases. E.g. The Today Chards Received..... topic.

From the Royal Mint, I bought a couple of these.  If you look carefully, you might be able to spot the odd problem...

Here's the other one.  The reverse is a lot better than the first, although not perfect.

And I didn't think the obverse was too bad either.

But then I tilted it up, into the light...

Beautiful coins. Gutted I let the 1/10th slip away. Just putting it out there, if you decide to sell, let me know 😉 👍🤣

Hesitation is defeat. If in doubt, buy anyway and sell at a small loss, that way you never miss out!
