Treetops landed safely then?

Perth mint take such care in shipping parcels across the pond. 3 internal layers of packaging make for a safe journey.

 
 

Also had this nice arrival from @lxy70713    The late QEII's 95th birthday anniversary. Cheers Daniel for this 1/4oz beauty.

This reads as you're a freak?

one nine for a copy ( am freq ) / one four for a copy ( fm freq ) good buddy  ten four

I'm half Irish and often wondered which half, also read it like a year - so now I know. Trying to figure the plus sides of a Brit Richard, Paddy brains.
Edited to Richard as the abbreviated equivalent was censored

Plethora of goodies for today. Thanks to @GoldDiggerDave for the graded returns. Very happy with those. Also picked up the final missing matte plain edge SOTD sovereign for the collection. To finish things off and thanks to @paulmerton for flagging this one, the 1/10 Gold Standard on sale at Royal Mint (looks like I got the final one) 👍🏼

Apologies for the potato pics, but this is a rarity to behold!
One of only eight 1/10oz gold standards in the hands of the filthy public?

Today I received the 5 coins I sent to @GoldDiggerDave for grading.
Dave kept me up to date with costs, timeframes and it was a very smooth process I’d definitely do it again so thanks Dave 👍🏻

@ZRPMs your comment "At some point in our lives gold just grabs us."     i know a addiction when i see one , the key to this game is , knowledge , discipline  patience , and self  control ????? WHICH I HAVE ZERO OF ,   so f all that , remortgage the house , hammer the credit card ,  and spunk it all up the wall on gold ??? THIS IS THE WAY 

Been after a George III sovereign in a reasonable condition for a little while and was delighted to be able to pick up this XF40. I am just trying to decide whether to release it from the slab.
Would really like a William IV sovereign in an extremely fine condition (doesn’t need to be slabbed) as well but you don’t see many at a reasonable price.

My swag from today. With some closer up pic's of the gold

Special thanks to @SamThomasldn, @jackflash123, @sellerstacker, @James32 and @sworks

My first purchase on the forum arrived today and I'm over the moon with it! Many thanks to @Adamcahn 😁
