Used the macro gadget to take some closer photos of the $1.





You can see more clearly where it spent time in a mount as well as the gash on the front

My collection so far

1 oz Krugerrand

1/4 oz Perth Mint Lunar Series 2: Snake and Horse

1/4 oz Australian Mint Lunar Monkey

1/4 oz Queens Beast

2007 Sovereign

Also have 2 Austrian 1915 1 Ducats not in photo

 

I like 1/4 oz due to their size but they are difficult to come by. Looking to get the 1/4 oz rooster, maybe when gold price drop a little. Am currently looking into 1/10s but the premium on them is pretty steep so I'm a little hesitant.

Just delivered. Well worth the time and effort and as featured in @Numistacker 's video...a rare MS70 Lion Queen's Beast bought raw from Numistacker and kindly sent for grading with a great result. watch the vid for more info and subscribe to Numistacker's channel

Nothing flash or expensive just an old worn 1819 crown (I like it though) and a 2000 Canadian proof dollar to replace the BU I bought by accident.

Royal Mint Proof Rooster and the 2017 Pegasus.  The quality of the Pegasus is very poor compared to the Angels.  Marks here and there and some white hazing on the horse.

Haven't been active for a while as I've been on nights. Just got woken up by the postie. I forgive him for the loud knocking as he delivered this??

1990 Gold Panda from Atkinsons.  Was expecting a capsuled coin with some red spotting and was pleasantly surprised when I opened the package to find it was OMP and red spot free.

[Oldun]

Is there something going on with the front of the box with the single full sovereign ?

[Noobstacker86]

today i received this 2017 sovereign i quite like it, however i have noticed a small dot on the neck and "bum" of the horse these are not really that noticeable with the naked eye. do i send it back for a replacement? or is that me being picky.

[Oldun]

For 430 quid and while they still have stock, I'd back it. I would call first to make sure you will definitely be getting a replacement and have them put it in an email to you. It is a proof afterall and as long as you are sure the black marks are on the coin and not on the plastic cover. I would very carefully unscrew the cap and see if it isn't some fibre from a glove or something first.

I received mine today, after reading your writing about the coin I will now check mine carefully. THANK you for the heads up. ? I have just took a good look at your coin and seen the spots if after checking, they are definitely spots get it back to the Mint. I have to wait until I get home to check mine. Hope yours are not spots good luck.

after thinking about it i decided to phone them and said what was up with it and the lady apologized and said to send it back, i did ask her if i would be guaranteed a replacement and she said yes but i forgot to ask her to email me that tho. It seemed to me like that dot nnear the neck was missing the frosted proof bit like it wasn't stamped properly if that makes sense? i looked at it under a light and when i tilted the coin i could see the spot was shiny just like the mirrored background. anyways i sent it off a little while ago hopefully dont have to wait too long to get the replacement.   @gazer  let us know how your is.

[HelpingHands]

I'm sure one of us will receive the coin you sent back.  That's the way they do business.
