Today I Received.....

[Falcon55]

Added a little more weight to my silver stack today with this delivery

[GoldElliott]

2 more for the folder

These New Guinea (now Papua New Guinea) shillings have been on my radar for a while now. Only struck in 4 years with 2 monarchs, George V in 1935 and 1936 and George VI in 1938 and 1945. Standard circulating coinage struck in .925 (which in 1945 I think was one of the last countries to do this!)

Unique design and the only world silver coin I have with a hole in the middle!

That's my first country completed too

I think I know the lot you're talking about.. the huge one that went for over £180 with the fiji coins in it too? I was watching that but went for way more than I was prepared to pay although it did have some lovely coins in it. I bought 4 of these from a well established seller on ebay and split it with a fellow forum member as I only needed 2 for my collection.

Ahh you only got 2 coins and 4 sides DOH, it was four coins in a lot I was watching, my backs gone and I am high on painkillers at the moment, I won three more coins in auctions, will let you see them when/if they arrive and are as described.

yes it was that lot with the 4 coins! I just only kept 2 of them, the other 2 went to someone else. thought you were talking about this lot below, which also had some very nice world silvers in it but went too high for me.

Good job mate, that's what I do sometimes, its cheaper to buy a joblot and keep the best and sell the rest, I am saving for a bigger purchase at the moment just hope you aint bought it before I saved enough.

A pair (4th & 5th Effigy) of ridiculously low mintage (10 each) platinum 5p coins (1/4 oz each), from the 2015 platinum proof sets.

[PapaLazarou]

The increasingly elusive silver proof 2009 1oz "Kangaroo at Sunset" was the first time this design was available in this weight. The F12 privy was succeeded by the F15 in 2010-11, and the "Kangaroo in the Outback" issues of 2012-14. The mintage of just 4,000 was the lowest of the 12 BU and Proof coins.

Such a nice design

Got these 1/10 royal arms, was going to sell them but decided I like them too much!! Also this cute little replica eagle. Just under 1gm 22ct. 

[Gordon]

Just got this very impressive 2008 3oz platinum £5 proof coin 

[Darr3nG]

What sorcery is this, @Jamesd??? You've shrunk my hand!!!

 

But you did provide me with my new favourite coin, so cheers!  

[LiquidMetalsUK]

They are lovely. Need the 2020 1oz 2oz 5oz to come out then I'll be happy 😂😀

[Robda1986]

It's so cute shame they didn't do a half and a full oz 😕

This set is greatly undervalued given the little-known fact that it contains two very rare coins. And not the ones one might expect.

Another very attractive 925 example imo - and therein lurks my silver shieldback £1 quarry. Just two more to find.

Thanks BYB. So happy to get my hands on these beauties. #1 and #2 😀
