[Sovereign]

just bought the 1/4oz proof bull 

[Agpanda]

Bought myself an 2007 Koala, just cause its the first year and it was cheap

[JunkBond]

1887 and 1892 Jubilee halves that just popped up on Atkinsons, been plotting grabbing some for weeks.

[mr1030]

Ordered the 1/4 oz bull on Monday.  My first time purchasing from The Royal Mint, so i'm curious how the experience will be.

[mr-dead]

Just purchased 2 X Caliper display stands + 2 glass domes to display my doubloons.

End result will look like this but works out a lot cheaper buying them separately (£14 for a dome shipped + £14 a clamp + £10 shipping from the US)

 

[ArcticSilver]

Today I bought twenty Sunshine Mint 1oz silver rounds, twenty 1oz Silver Maple Leafs, and a Silver Gold Bull 10oz bar.

Very Sherlock Holmes-esque.

Bought a proof Sovereign on eBay USA






Might need the NCS or fairy liquid treatment but $313 ))

[TheHaven]

Nice one to add to the collection.

Will it set you back much in Duty and Vat?

That looks excellent. A Gold coin Orary would be pretty neat.

And a bunch of old sixpence

Well, it's a slippery slope this collecting lark. Having originally bought some 2017 bullion sovereigns just to hold some gold, followed by a 2018 when eBay did the 20% offer, followed by some random mixed modern dates from Atkinsons, I suddenly found myself contemplating date runs!

So, just taken the opportunity with a couple of 2012s from HGM and as I was ordering thought I'd go for a lucky dip too.

I knew I shouldn't have started!!!!!!!

That's a quarter ounce of gold! Well just found out that RM is sending me a silver proof Black Bull as an "act of goodwill' for them taking 4 months to complete my order... Worth it?

[Skelator88]

2012 full Sovereign 

2012 Half Sovereign 

2012 Quarter Sovereign 

 

All graded PF70 NGC

[Ansel]

Royal Mint splurge!

A few of the 10p early strikes plus album and...

RAF badge £2 silver proof. 

It will be my first proof, I hope the RM is kind to me. I think it will look nice next to my Grandfather's cap badge.

 A  2016 James Butler Proof half sovereign .

I’ve been looking for a nice old wooden box to keep my stack in for a while.  Came across this yesterday which is just fantastic.  I can’t wait to get it!! It’s a Victorian jewellery box dating for 1860-1890 and has been professionally restored.
