Well finally arrived today.  It took a couple weeks longer then they expected to ship.  I think there were some casting difficulties.  Heads or Tales 30+ oz silver Britannia statue.  This thing is fantastic!  I love their products.

Wow! Very beautiful! Can i ask you where you bought this @mr1030?

[mr1030]

@PolarPanda I ordered it directly from Heads or Tales at https://silverstatues.com

[caloundracats]

Great looking Britannia. Had a look at the website and think the Soaring Eagle is the best IMHO. Would happily display that taking pride of place.

[mr1030]

Yeah the eagle is on my want list. ?

Some lovely models on there. Like the way they've taken classic coin designs and 3d'd them.

Yesterday I got this stunning example of the Australian 1927 parliament house florin

Do they tarnish badly? Just a rub over with a silver cloth every now and then?

The company has a web page that gives details on caring for the statues.  They say they will tarnish (at least the ones without an antique finishing), and that a silver cloth wiping works great.  Btw, If your question was spurred by the dark areas on the pic of my statue, those are just dark reflections from my black cell phone and shadows cast by the overhead lighting in the room.  The company does apply some type of oxidizing in some recesses as you can see in the helmet and some of the deeper folds of the robe.  The statue itself arrived overall, nice and bright, which you can see in the picture of it in the box.

6 2 oz Egyptian Gods: Khnum from Provident.   I really like this series.

[caloundracats]

Thanks @mr1030 , was wondering if they oxidised some areas so you have answered my question? Will look further at their website. Fancy a couple of their items but should I buy or stick to coins.........oh decisions decisions! In reality, will probably wait till late next year. Might even go pick them up in person.

Hi,
Today I've received my Zambia Elephant 2003.  I got it at a very nice price.
Can you tell from the pictures is this is the real deal or a fake?  It passes the magnet test like it should, so my first impression is that it is the original coin.
Perhaps someone with more knowledge about these Zambia's elephants can give the answer.

Greetz,
Bart
