Today I Received.....

Try a couple of % below spot then slowly creep up to an offer that they except.

It may take a bit of time but why not try it .

My best value sovereign from BBP with the 20% eBay voucher turned up this morning. They gave me a 2015 in a capsule for a delivered cost of £164.56.

The capsule is worth a fiver so you beat my eBay deal of 159 ))

It's only a generic capsule and not a Royal Mint one.

You only get three offers then you can't make any more

I received my discounted eBay sov from BBP. They gave me a 2015 in a capsule too.

[sovereignsteve]

What finish is that supposed to be? Looks better than standard bullion.

looks like a RM proof capsule too.

Is it a direct copy, ie screw closing with a outside "lip"?

[Cully]

No it's a push fit

I used "gold coins NI" instead of BBP when using the ebay 20% off, I got a 1894 sovereign with a Sydney mint mark

Ah yes I see. It looks more like a bullion in this photo too.

[HelpingHands]

I think bbp cap all the loose coins they send out.

I believe they do and add a nice premium for it too.

[KDave]

Received RM 1 oz gold year of the goat from Bairds. Came sealed in a card. I will need to capsule it before it can join the others. Gold spot price was £696 an ounce when I pulled the trigger on this one.

 

I hope its around £650 an ounce for my next purchase 

[morezone]

2 Rand from Atkinsons.

[Lindeman]

Like KDave - a gold 1 ounce RM lunar year of the sheep. In the red credit card holder thing from Bairds...it's coming out of that into a capsule soon! Bit miffed that they flipped the offer with the 2014 lunar horse about 2 days after I bought my sheep! But never mind. Nice piece of gold.

[Ares]

1965 lucky dip sov from Atkinsons 

[morezone]

1.5 oz Polar Bear & Cub since I already own the previous 2.

2015 Maple with Goat privy.  I do like the reverse proof finish but this one is already milk spotting

1/10th 1988 Platinum Koala for the 1/10th collection although it isn't gold.

[morezone]

Wasn't expecting these until Monday and was surprised that Parcel Force put them out for a Saturday delivery today.

Bit gutted having bought at £727/oz.

Where did you get the Koala from MZ? Wouldn't mind getting a fractional also.

[SilvergunSuperman]

Today I received 2x French 20 francs from HGM, both roosters which takes my total to 3.

 

Wasn't expecting them to arrive today, took less than 24hrs from ordering so great service at what must be a busy time.

eBay.  German dealers want €180+.  I paid £95 which isn't too bad considering the going rate but still a hefty premium.

[SilveriteFX]

1 x 1 Oz Silver Sun

 

10 x 1/10 Oz Silver Suns
