This silver Hemidrachm of Tabaristan comes from the Kingdom of Tabaristan. This Kingdom was located along the southern shore of the Caspian Sea, which is currently Northern Iran. The 7,000 miles long Silk Road linked Constantinople with the heart of China. This route was used by merchants to transport luxury goods, precious metals, art objects, and ideas between China, the West and Middle East. The Silk Road ran directly through the Kingdom of Tabaristan and many of these Hemidrachm were used in trade all along the road.
Tarbaristan at the time was under Muslim occupation, however the coin continued to be modeled after coins from the preceding Sassanian Empire. The obverse shows a right facing bust wearing a winged crown in the style of the Sassanian King Khusru II. The reverse depicts attendants flanking a Sassanian style fire altar, with a border of three concentric circles.
The Silk Road Hoard includes coins minted in Tabaristan and may have been struck under the rule of Haroun al-Rashid, AD 786-809. Al-Rashid’s name is mentioned in several stories from the collection of tales commonly referred to as Tales of the Arabian Nights. This example is graded Mint State by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC).

Was interested to see how the 10oz Britannia looked up close so had to go and get one of course and then compare it to the 1oz.

I know us coin collectors can be fussy, but how's that got through QC?  The Queen looks like she's been clubbed in the head with an Iron bar! 

After a long wait received the 1oz gold proof Queens Beast Completer coin today. Interesting that it was the quality controlled “QC” sticker.
However there is a massive “smudge” on the Queens portrait which you can easily see with the naked eye.

I’d like to see a reverse frosted 1oz gold set.  For me they have there sets wrong it should have the completer in the set.
A round box with the completer in the centre a surrounded buy the 10 beasts, even better with a larger completer would look the business.

1924 Perth Mint Sovereign
Received the 1924 Perth Mint sovereign, graded MS62 by PCGS.
A sovereign that is increasingly difficult to find. PCGS total graded is 88. The 1924, from what I’ve read isn’t an easy date to fill and the P mint is slightly harder to source than the M mint.
Marsh: 263
Maybe one to watch in the future.

2 oz High Relief Proof Double Pixiu
Difficult to capture the depth of this coin with my phone.

To run in parallel with today I received It would be a good idea where we can all track what product issues we are all having.  The Silver proof QB are looking problematic.   Also if you could update your post with the action taken replacement/refund it would give everyone a clear view with issues .  This is not solely for Royal Mint it should be for every mint.
