Today I Received.....

[FlorinCollector]

Fresh back

[Heirlooms]

Not as impressive as @SilverMike’s nod to the Platinum Jubilee but mine is one of only 2 proof platinum metal coins released by the Royal Mint celebrating the occasion. Quite surprised there hasn’t been more (yet) in a platinum jubilee year which we won’t see again for a very long time and definitely not within our lifetime.
 

Low mintage and a coin that will be one for the history books in the future, chuffed with the result

Arrived today, and I am well happy with it... Thanks to @StBeesSilver 

Personally I think this has got to be turned into a regular product as it is very very good.

not just because I have THE PROTOTYPE 😂

I think this will do well if more were made...

Had a boat accident on my way to my stack and lost the 2022 super incused Maple Leaf. Luckily i made earlier a couple pictures. This coin has the right for beeing described as super incused👍

I’ve got a special 5oz maple currently up for sale if interested

Thanks for your kind offer, but i don't collect Maple proofs usually. I had to buy this incused one, cause i was curious about the depth of the striking and the contrast of the partial gold plating. Actually a pretty nice coin, bravo RCM. Will enjoy this coin some time, but i guess at some point it will have to find a new home.

I so wish I'd had the cash at the time.

Portrait and Gothic coins were going cheap on E Bay, so I purchased a few Coinster.

Was a pair of 2oz's going on a facebook group this morning at £550 the pair, how the pricing has changed on these

Still want a 2oz Gothic Crown but waiting to see how low they settle

Generally speaking, do folks buy coins directly from NGC, or are they bought separately and sent to NGC to grade after the fact? Just curious.

Bought from the mint/secondary market then sent of grading. 

Although a large portion also buy the resulting high grades from the secondary market.

They are the grading service so you send your ungraded coin to them. They charge a fee and grade it, conserve it and send it back..for a fee of course. It's easier to get it sent from one of the dealers on here tbh than trying to do it yourself.

Coins came back from NGC   

[Mrpound]

Got my forum bar from the great @BackyardBullion lovely little chunky unit… the bar not backyard 🤣

And this beskar bar from silvertrader first time using them… have to say very happy 👍

I can bring you in warm, or I can bring you in cold 🥶 ☠️

They say one man's junk is another man's treasure... Well I have to agree...

The latest arrivals for my .500 date run arrived courtesy of @tallthinkev, a gent who knows how to drive a hard bargain.😉

These were delighted to meet their new buddies...

If anyone can be bothered checking if they have any of the missing dates I'd be happy to discuss. Once the big boys are done I'll move on to the shillings and under.

A nice grade Churchill Crown and thank you @paulmerton for the £5 Crowns.

I find it interesting and impressive how many people on this forum seem to send their coins in to NGC as a matter of course.

Is there a UK depot for NGC where you can send these in locally? They seem to have a quick turn around time.

Over here the delay for NGC and PCGS is unbelievable. Its months and months of waiting.

There is a London drop off/collection point I believe, but the coins still go to America to get graded.

Oh wow. From the number of fresh new NGC slabs I see posted here I figured they had to have a satellite office in the UK doing the grading on-site.

How long is it taking you to get these submissions sent in and returned?

From my understanding, around 2-3months
