Finally picked up my third Indian head gold $5 coin, this one a 1911. Enjoying it! 

Really should diversify and buy some other old US designs - but this is my favourite (so far) - so I keep buying them.

I need to add some of these to my stack!

How much persuading did it take?  Did he even finish his sentence?

Which deal? We were talking about the sovs and he pulled the Brit out. TBH I've no idea what the mintage of the Brit is, I haven't had chance to check yet.

Nice swap Steve and in great condition! How many bullion sovs if you care to share?  

I'm not going to say as I run the risk of one of us being embarassed, but it would be interesting to know how many you guys would guess

Sovs.  

[HelpingHands]

I thought at least 2:1 - 2.5:1 based on your recent eBay buy.

[silverin]

Yes I'd go with 2:1 

Between 10 and 15 bullion sovs 

 

[barney]

looking at the sovs they all look great conditon but not knowing all the dates, if you swapped 20 bullion sovereigns i would say you had a steal

Steve would love to see some more pics, just to make me turn a bit more green with envy

There's one 1821, 3x 1822 and one 1824

One of the 1822s is getting close to EF ( I actually sold him this one last year!)

Sadly, the rarest one, the 1824, is in the worst condition of the bunch but I haven't got one so yea

So lots of duplication but he wanted to switch strategy, what else could I do?

I'll see what I can do re: photos but it won't be until the weekend.

Steve, I'd like an 1822.

Please PM me with your best price and I'll give you a straight yes or no answer. If I can't afford it, I'll be honest.

The 7 coin 2015 Libertad Proof set (The box is super slim and an absolute joy to have all around. This is a piece of art not just silver proofs in a box)

The Delorean (which is soooooooc uber super cool) and The Hoverboard.

Royal Australian Mint's Bullion Lunar Gold coins.  They're actually distributed by PAMP which I find odd and while doing research, I found that PAMP also distribute the Canadian Mint's 5 Blessings Bullion Gold coin too (no wonder they're so far to locate).

Took a pic and then went to rehouse them and noticed that the obverse had a nice design.  More interesting that seeing just the queens head anyway.

A gold round? That's new to me. MZ, I imagine you paid VAT on them silver bars. Right?

[HelpingHands]

Not if that bar is technically a coin.

Legal tender so margin VAT.  Current average is €515 which is pretty much the same as a 1kg Lunar 2.

This is my second 1/10 gold round.  I also have an XAG one and hopefully will get a SS Freedom girl one day.  There are quite a few rounds in 1oz but you don't see them often.

The 2015 silver Libertad proofs - 2 and 5 oz. Always stunning coins, such detail.  

Then a big piece of joy today when visiting a San Francisco coin shop : a  characterful 1909 St Gaudens gold $20. It was that or a 2009 gold US 1 ounce Eagle , so the choice was obvious - even if it did cost an extra $200 to land the St Gaudens!
