I don't have a live figure but as you can see quite a few!

Yes I also have the halves started but that is even harder/more expensive per gram. I started on the halves actually but prefer the additional detail on the full sovs

That will be an awesome set when complete! I wish you the best of luck in completing your goal! You will have to keep us updated and put up a few pics when complete, I don't think I have ever seen a picture of a complete date run, I bet it's a nice sight!

I take it you keep all the doubles elsewhere and only use that box for the best of each date/type?

Far too much spare spending money if you can manage a full collection so quickly!

Doesn't that box take up a lot of space in your safe?

That is stunning. Bravo

Incredible collection and beautifully displayed too. What is in the Tupperware, I think I spot a gold bar?

edit: Added a quickhone pic, when I get time and a bit closer i'll take some proper ones of the run

You should do like a 2 hour full stack video and show every coin!

Firstly sorry to the OP as this has turned out to be a bit of a thread hijack!

OMG! 

Please spill the beans on that case? Just what I need 

It's a Lighthouse aluminium case for the Lighthouse/Leuchttrum trays. Not amazing quality or anything but it's the utility i wanted it for, I couldn't deal with carrying the individual trays from storage when adding coins

Yes the presented ones are for the run only. duplicates are in a monster box/RM tubes that i'm trying to fill as well 

It takes up a bit, but i have a big safe!

One is odds and sods, which does have a little 5g pamp bar in it, and the other is coins i have listed for sale on the website etc.

That would be pretty epic, I'm not one for videos etc but I'll have to do it if the run ever gets completed

I'm now so underwhelmed looking at my stash of PMs  lol

Well done you Sir !!!

Thats OK! The thread hijack was definitely worth it. Absolutely stunning sovereigns and its all about the same topic so well worth everyone's comments still!

Right decision made as I already had one sovereign...

 

Going to do the Elizabeth heads first as I've got a 2015 IRB head from a strike on a day sovereign.

 

So I've just got a JC head ordered and will work my way backwards and then finally go for the James Butler design as that will cost more being proof only.
