    Gildeon got a reaction from mr1030 in Full Stack / Full Collection Photos   
    As last year, I am posting my full 1967 collection as it was in the end of 2020. First part has anything except the slabs. These will follow in the next couple of days, as I don't have everything in one place. So here we have coin and medal sets, large medals, coin envelopes and all the bits and pieces.

    New Lunar series from France, started last year and it is their second round I think. My interest was in the silver high relief version and got this year's pig. Really happy with the product, I will probably continue with this one. Very nice coins, good detail and packaging. Going for the dog now, when I visit Paris this December. 😀

    @LawrenceChardthank you for the wealth of information. 🧐 Some great points in your post, that I will try to keep in mind in the future.
    The medal was bought from Emporium Hamburg auction and the link is here https://www.biddr.com/auctions/emporiumhamburg/browse?a=1699&l=1838753
    I hope that helps. I would mainly like to have some more info about gold %, so I can create a pretty accurate sales description.

    Just won this in an auction. It says 3.26 gr and it's probably a modern restrike of an old Sicilian coin. Don't know much more yet, so any info would be appreciated.

    I've burned a hole in Duckduckgo looking for another or a manufacturer but no joy. Not sure why I had a bug in the butt for this but once I started looking I just kept going 🤣
    If it is pure gold and it was bought for a ~24% premium over spot (based on today's spot, it may have been different when you bought the coin) I'd would hazard a guess that would be about the limit for profitability. Assuming it is a modern replica and provenance is hard to come by of course. Then again it could be part of a series that someone really wants to complete and they may be willing to pay a premium to do so?
    Good luck with the sale, and if you do find out more about it let us know. It will provide some closure for me 🤣

    I wouldn't call it a restrike, but rather replica. And just bear in mind that many replica coins like this are produced from 14k or 22k gold, rather than pure gold. What info did you get from the auction listing? Did it just say a "gold coin"?
    BTW did you check this source for potential info?

    Good point, as the coin it was based on was likely hammered. If it is based on the Tari the design is different, so maybe it's a commemorative/tribute coin.
    I've been trying to find companies that create such things but not had much success.

    The 1967 is the year of the restrike I suppose. Haven't tested it, since it was bought for around 200€, and I don't have any cheap way to do it here. And the fact it was bought from a big auction house makes me not to worry really. But before I sell it, I would like to provide the potential buyers with as much info as possible.

    Massive shout out to @Clockpuncher for this one. The 1997 1/4oz gold Britannia. That now concludes my collection of the 5 Philip Nathan Britannia designs. Was inspired by a comment by @Roy a while back to collect these. Lovely crenellated border design which brings them together as a collection
