A prussian double crown in a rather impressive grade. 1888 is also the three emperor year with Wilhelm I marking the first Emperor to reign this remarkable year.

Scrooge McDuck arrived in the post today but is destined for a work colleague who models himself on this character. I'll probably get myself a couple now I've seen one up close.

Q: What do you do when your stepson decides to start selling his stack to buy a flat?
A: You buy of course.
So today I received 2 x 1oz 2016 gold Britannias.
First impressions are, a bit heavier than half sovs.

Received a tube of Dragon Beasts today as well as 2 x 10oz Silver Lions. 2 things to note -
1) Goldsilver.be were great, very cheap and didn't shout at me once.
2) Yodel deliver on Sundays and are capable of ringing the doorbell instead of hiding the package in the bin - who knew?

Finally picked up the two lovely gold one - ouncers that I bought in the dip a few weeks ago. A 2017 eagle and a 2017 anniversary Britannia. Nice to contrast the colour and the designs, with the US eagle of course being 0.917. Sorry about the poorer photo of the Brit - but I am reluctant to take it out of its capsule. Regarding the designs; while the Eagle is very good (and with a big ounce you can see more of the finer details of the eagles nest and the White House ), it does make me appreciate that the Royal Mint here in the UK is willing to take some risks and plays with new tweaks to the designs on the front and back. Lets face it, we do grumble about the RM and pile into them when they get it spectacularly wrong (eg the 2018 lunar dog) but at least they take the risk. On the US side - i guess it would take another revolution to change the design. Maybe President Trump will order a new design - with the genius himself on both sides!?
Anyway - back to the final gold coin - a cool pickup from a visit to the LCS when in the States, a 1923 Melbourne sovereign for the same premium as any other bullion. Not in pristine condition, but this was a pretty low mintage by 1920s standards so quite pleased with that. That one goes into the semi-numismatic pile of sovereigns?.
Also snagged a few of the annual silver 1 ounce designs - but my favourite by far is the Netherlands Lion restrike. I could only find the bullion version, but i see now what all the fuss is about....and i may need to track down a proof! Some nice 1990 Canadian maples in OMP - i do like the old maples, and these are in great shape. Maybe being in the wrapper prevents spotting ?

1898 South Africa 1 Pond (almost last coinage before entry in WW I in 1914 but the coins from 1899 will be out of reach of most on this forum)
https://coinweek.com/world-coins/the-1898-single-9-pond-south-africas-rarest-gold-coin/
If it wasn't for the dies from Berlin, it would be the same as any South African Sovereign

This dealer has Panda shape plastic holderholder for each coin (well the holder remains same as the last year).
