Today I Received.....

[Mtaybar]

Something a little different today from @ArgentSmith. Custom made in no time and perfect fit for my little hands (R1/2) lol. A .925 silver ring made from a 1916 one florin. It has a nice hefty weight and chunky feel to it. Great job well done, I'm a happy customer 😁👍

This very nice 1911 Sydney Mint half sovereign arrived today. Mintage that year was only 252,000 of these coins.

... and it looks like we have managed to derail, subvert, and hijack yet another topic / thread.

In an attempt to get it back on track, I saw this today:

An 1853 half sovereign, which could be a possible overdate, but is probably just a "normal" 1853 with a doubled date.

It is still interesting though.

What else did people receive today?

I just found other photos of this same coin.

The scratches on the obverse are annoying, but c'est la vie:

The reverse:

... and another shot of the obverse:

Despite being an ugly coin because of the scratches, the doubled date numerals are interesting.

These are great, I was down in Cardiff last week and gutted I didn't have time to visit.

Yeah they are very cool,  you don't see them that often so I snapped them up 😁 I already have one of the fortitude rounds from a few years ago .. got them at a good price £32 each posted 🙈🙈

This 1938 Australian Crown arrived today. Mintage was only 101,600 coins.  I will send this for grading. 

[MaxeBaumann]

Hello dear friends of silver, I did not receive it today, but during my small inventory yesterday this coin came into my hands and was immediately declared the favourite piece of the day. Have a nice day and greetings from Maxe.

Big thanks to @Colnago for this entry into the world × 1/4 oz run.

Not the easiest coin to get and going by a bit of research after the fact...a bargain. 

[matt1r]

My favourite time, results, highlights and surely some for sale posts later today 🙂

Nice big coin weighing in at 12.9 grams 

Very hard to get in AU grades 

Only 4 in this grade with Only 13 grade higher in a old NGC slab

Picked up a handful of these little beauties as some gifts for a couple of milestone birthdays my friends have coming up (my photography skills are a little lacking today). The strike is definitely sharper in real life.

Postie delivered my shiny new 100g 2022 SF / BYB bars today - every bit as lovely as I thought they would be.
Thank you @BackyardBullion 😃👍🙏

Awesome little bar from @RiverbankSilver

Thanks bud 

[MickB]

Today I paid £40.96 for this 2022 sovereign from Costco. Well, if you ignore the food purchases but include the 2% cashback rewards that I built up over the last year that went towards it, this makes it the cheapest sovereign I've ever bought. 😄

Todays arrivals, Jubilee head full and half from @Sh97if

Others best value half’s from Britannia, always seem to get a 1982 when I buy best value bundles 🤷‍♂️.
