Today I bought.....

[Danny-boy]

I must say, the 2008 is one of my favourites.

Gorgeous coin.

Every time I go and see my collection, I look over the britannias first.

2008 Britannia's.

 

I have a couple of them, I agree they are very nice coins.

I have just bought......

 

4 * 5 oz Simon Bolivar Coins 1974 (Panama) Venezuelan Military leader, who fought the Spanish

 

An album with first day cover coins with sort of stamps as well. 12 of those.

 

A Bramwells Jewellers 2 oz token.

 

And a British Legion 2000 Commemorative coin.

 

Cost £10.27 per oz. Tell you what though it brought my average down!!!

A very diverse array of metal there. I'm loving that jewellers' token, harkens back to the old days when gold- and silver-smiths acted as banks (no I'm not that old, I've read books!).

[Keithoil]

Here's something.

 

Just called Bramwells Jewellers and they will take the token to the value of £25, not too bad it cost me £20.54, so profit right away.

All the talk of the baird and co rounds have enticed me to purchase the year of the tiger and the peregrine falcon from sarnia silver, I'm interested to see them up close before getting more.

2007 is an expensive koala. I am holding off purchasing it until I have managed to buy all of the coins that I want more.

[Danny-boy]

Can I ask how much you paid Bosse?

Cheers, very similar to mine. That was a bit of market research.

They do command a very good price don't they, great when you have one but rubbish when you want to buy one!!!

@Keithoil. Just a query regarding the panama coins. Are you sure they are 5oz coins. It's just that I thought the largest one was the 20 Balboas, and that is just under 4 Oz. Is there a larger coin?

Think they are all about 129.59g which is over 4oz of sterling.

[Keithoil]

@DB, and @HT

 

Thanks for that I am impressed, you are correct they weigh 4.64 oz each.

 

I have amended my database accordingly.

I decided to go for the 1oz proof Brit. 

 

If they just chuck it in an envelope and the cardboard packaging gets bent there will be a strongly worded email sent.

I have only ever had one thing delivered from the RM and it was packaged well.

Let's see if we even get one!!!!

1996 Kilo 4 coin proof kook set.

 

The set consists of 4 proof kilo coins?  I bet that was pricy. 

[Danny-boy]

Think the biggest is a kilo and the others are smaller.
