@shortstack68I am not assuming anything until I have the coin in hand. People sell for all sorts of reasons - and as a buyer and a seller I have learned the hard way that things are only "worth" what someone else will pay for them on the day. Sometimes that comes out to be in line with the market, sometimes sellers just need to get cash quickly so they end up getting less value than they might have, and some sellers may genuinely not be fully informed on the value of their goods. My feet are firmly planted on the ground. In any event - part of the excitement for me was not in the financial value, but in actually getting the last remaining year in my Morgan date run with an 1893, as excepting 1895 - that was the final year I was missing?

25oz ordered yesterday as I make a start on the 2nd thousand. Noticed that my average price was a quid or so higher than the previous few batches, so last months price drop has worked out very nicely for us disciplined stackers!

Back to coins....
Some old gold and some new, some platinum and silver too?.
A few gold quarter ounce QB Dragons/Griffins and 2016 Libertad proofs (some for members on the Forum), along with a 2016 Perth mint sovereign. Will think about grading some of them in pursuit of 70s! Another ounce of Pt - this time the 2016 Austrian Philharmoniker, which I bought actually right on the price dip in early January....so well pleased with that, and a nice big coin.
Then silver - a stackers tube of 10 QB dragons, plus a few extras for capsules of the dragon and Griffin, and a slabbed Dragon. Happy to report that no milky ones in the tube (I checked!). Shelled out the cash for a silver PF70 QB Lion one ounce proof, and a few more in boxes - now I see why everyone goes gaga over this proof design ?. Some more irresistible 2016 Libertad silver proofs, and a few 2017 kooks (1 ouncers and a doorstop 10 ounce) and 2017 Britannias for good measure when the silver price dipped.
The old gold: "mission accomplished" on the sovereign mintmark set as I just found a nice Ottawa C 1911 sov to complete the set. The Bombay I 1918 I picked up last week made me focus on that missing Canada one?! 1911 C by far the most common of the Canada years (1908-1919), but at 257,048 minted that is still a pretty low % out of the 40 million minted worldwide that year (numbers from goldsovereigns.co.uk). Got it along with a very nice 1912 London sovereign, and a 20 francs 1897 Lucky Angel.
Lindeman.

3 tubes of QB Dragons, all spoken for in the sales thread, and very nice they are too, very little mint/tube damage.

2017 225th anniversary coins arrived form the mint today. They will be going to NGC tomorrow. The pictures dont do these coins justice. They are beautiful.
