Well 3rd time and still not lucky or am I asking to much of the RM. Did I wait to long to buy one so when you return them they only have crap left to exchange with or is it ok??

Slight scratching on the rim next to the SIL in silver and possibly a mark ( or my breath lol) next to the E of Elizabeth. 

I will be keeping it and banging it on eBay in a year or two to get my money back I think.

Just got the grading back from the current NGC batch and I wanted to share some things with you guys...

Lets start with Centennial Gold - I sent in 4 pieces - 3 dimes and one Standing Liberty Quarter as an Early Release

As you can see ALL yes ALL got SP70! 

Next invoice in the modern tier was a couple of pandas, a couple of gold beasts and some moon pandas...

As you can see - The 2 Beasts (one mine and one for Oldun) scored... drum roll... encore drum roll... MS70!!

The 1983 Panda looked great to me when I bought it and to get a 69 on such an early Panda was great.

Lets turn to the Moon Pandas... I dont think anyone has graded any yet independently ... got 69 and a 70 which was not bad. the MCM 70's have sold out as a dealer in China bought about 150,000$ worth of them!

Lastly I did a favour for Junior member @Brycekanowski aged 11 who wanted to grade his prized 2005 Proof Silver Eagle. What was really cool was it got its own special 30th Anniversary label free of charge by NGC which I was not expecting and it scored a perfect PF70 too.

Maybe we need to rename the panda forum?

First Krugs I've ever held......must say that even allowing for the couple of gram weight difference, these 'feel' a lot more substantial than Brits.

I think I might stick with stacking Krugs from now on, as long as I can stop the terrible South African accent when handling them  and I keep breaking into the Spitting Image song 

 

 

@walesdave- great to see someone else that really likes the much-maligned Krugs!! I agree with you 100% - a Krug feels like £1000 worth in the hand. Always keep your eye out for cheap Krugs - as sometimes people overlook them.

September's prize draw win,1oz Kook from ChrisSilver ,lovely coin thanks.

Little late with this one.  Decided to buy this from the US instead of the EU this time as it was £10 cheaper and they promise to reimburse any charges if they get stung for customs.  Seems they were also one of the last to receive stock.

Legends of Asgard Valkyrie 3 oz High Relief

Big thanks to @sovereignsteve for this beauty and more detail than I expected.

Must resist temptation to brake it free of its plastic prison.

Something for the 1/10th collection. 2010 Gold 1/10 Isle of Man  Abyssinian Cat.  Real shame there are copper spots but doesn't really bother me on hard to find pieces.  Arrived int he UK on the 30th Sept but took Royal Mail 10 days to deliver.  Really thought it had gone missing and was going to open a dispute this afternoon once today's post had been.

Copper spots can disappear, I had a Lunar horse with a copper spot it went a year later.
