I shall soon be attempting to pour my own bars using scrap copper, brass, lead, bronze, & aluminium. I'm confident they won't look anywhere near that nice!

Just wheel it down to the scrap metal merchant, a lot easier🤔 just remember your driving licence 😁

Had this little beaut come in today.... There was a pride of them in fact but I had to find them a new home but kept this one. I think I'll name it Jeff.

Little and large, my first KG silver bar, a very satisfying lump it is too and a lovely little eagle to add some nice variety to the collection.

Just buy one, even if you can't really afford it (resell it) - but it is a joy to hold!

I'll hang on and get one in the new year.

Buy two, then you'll be worried you'll make the other one lonely if you sell one so will have to get 3, odd numbers arent great for the ocd so much easier to sell

Two more Sixpences toward my Monarch Type Set, and the last of my recent tranche of buying.

The first is a 1687 James II Sixpence.  Extremely scarce in this high grade.  All James II coinage is difficult to source due to the dearth of it and his (disastrous) three year reign prior to exile.

The more familiar portrait of George III is easier to pick up, but this high grade uncirculated example is a welcome addition, thick with toning and haze that gives way to a nice iridescent brilliance.

The bottom photos are of the two Brothers together- Charles II & James II.

@richatthecroft. Amazing detail for coins hundreds of years old, well out of my comfort zone but would be feeling very proud to own these beauties. Don't know where you find them but well done,,,

Nah, they'll give me fiat which will devalue as I drive home. Best to stack it in bars on my hearth and in my shed for a rainy day.

Thanks.  It’s a giant leap of faith and I can safely say that according to my spreadsheet my Silver Oz/ £ ratio is well and truly knackered 😂
