Today I Received.....

[FFposh]

Had a double delivery this morning. A second 1/10 Elephant (2016) from @silverroller and 3 x 1/10 Brits (2021) courtesy of @RiverbankSilver. 

Still looking for another Elephant, very reluctant to pay the premium Atkinson's are charging for their '22.

Pulled the trigger on a few more last night from a certain dealer up in Lancashire, so the collection growing nicely 👊

Oh Steffan that's so bloody nice, I'm not often jealous but I am of that. Brilliant and I'm 100% sure it will hold its premium!

2021 RM Silver Proof Coin Set with Machin Ten Bob Bit

 

With a mintage limited to a maximum (and as yet unconfirmed) mintage of 550, I was pleasantly surprised to pick this set up at auction at a delivered price equating to a 60%+ discount on last year's issue price. Even for the RM that is a hefty tumble, so I am led to conclude that the auction house's decision to leave the set in its unopened state and offer only a photo of the outer cardboard box worked heavily in my favour.

 

Standing head and shoulders above the rest is the Decimal Day 50p with the Arnold Machin obverse, a coin only available in this set. A very good-looking coin.

 

The RM has clearly subcontracted its research to the likes of the criminally inept Gates funded Full Fact. Quadrupedal invaders are precisely what HG Wells did not describe. Notwithstanding, the coin - much like the Logie Baird 50p - is otherwise not unattractive.

 

The £5 crown and Walter Scott £2 coin both show the unmitigated lack of imagination that fairly represents the lack of thought so prevalent throughout the UK in 2021.

2014 Brilliant Uncirculated / 'half proof' / mule sovereign.

Interesting piece with one side proof like, and another side standard bullion.

You did very well on that imo, the decimal day 50p is lovely

Wouldn't fancy a snag with that lure on

2022 Sovereign - Make Mine A Double! A really stunning thing, a big spend for me, but so, so worth it.

And a nice box & caps for it, and space for its smaller siblings in the hopefully not too distant future.
