The jiffy bag is not much smaller then my 24 inch monitor for a single coin lol.guess they don't care about saving paper or the planet haha.

I guess it's the old "conspicuous consumption" idea, letting everyone know how wealthy and powerful they are that they can just carelessly use large-size jiffy bags. That stuff aint free y'know!

A little bit tiny compared to this beautiful 5 coin set, but today I received my first Panda ever, first graded coin from my first forum transaction... Let's get it started

Big thanks to @augur for this lovely coin!

Not posted here before.  Received today, bought impulsively (because of the price) on New Years Eve on eBay when auction ended, presumably when everybody was in the Pub as I paid much, much less than scrap value!  Birmingham 1986, Padgett and Braham its a mighty fine Silver cigar box 8 1/4 x 5 3/8 x 2 1/2 inches in height, cedar wood lined and weighs a hefty 1155 grams.  Love the motif on the lid.  I estimate that this will weigh well in excess of 600 gram of .925 silver minus the cedar wood lining.  Better still, its of quality manufacture and I can't wait to fill it up with bullion.

Another delivery with some great items arrived today!

Last weekend ebay sent a voucher code for 20% off upto a max discount of £75, most on here got 1 and picked up something. I got the 2018 sovereign but didnt save much because it was higher priced anyway. Worked out at £225 ish i think.

No use now though it ended at 6pm on  the issue day.

More of my overenthusiastic pre Christmas spending...

[Keenstacker]

Been pondering on a gold purchase for the last few months now to diversify my stack,  so settled on these two 2018 sovereign beauties (slightly disappointing size tbh ?) . Was also gifted these five QB lions for a late Christmas present from my better half! Bless her soul! ?

This thing is byb said the seller didn't bear the cost so seem.s the sellers were being greedy to me is that right 

[Goldmick]

Got these today £271 each do like this sovereign one of them nice low cert no. will be good to khow the mintege no.s on this sovereign think it will be low ish big thanks to numi ages ago for the tip 

 

[MickB]

@Goldmick Funny thing is that this morning I looked at these on Ukgoldbullion.com website and ended up emailing MMTC Pamp in India to ask about the mintage for each year of these.

I could only find one quote of the 2013 being at 80,000 and the 2014 full sovereign at 150,000 but this was not from their website. There was a five year licence granted by the Royal Mint for Pamp to make these.

[Goldmick]

Yes I think 2017 no.s will be lower think the licence runs out this year nice sovereign.s the strike is very good me thinks lol

I didnt see his price to begin with.

To be fair In the add he did a breakdown of the costs, he showed paypal/ebay/post and after them he actually gets £235 ( i didnt look if that was accurate).

He did offer to pay by card and he would knock off the paypal.
