    If truth be told, I didn't receive these today - I picked up three of them at the Coin Fare in London on Saturday, and the other arrived in the post whilst I was up in The Big Smoke:
    Many thanks to @5huggy for the Geiger 1oz bar - I've had one of these on my "must get list" for a few months now
    Chards were selling the 2020 Kangeroos off for £20 at the show, and with no P&P to pay I wasn't going home without one
    The 1970 is only Nickel-Brass - but I have always loved the design, and to see such a nice example was just too tempting
    The 2002 Shieldback Half Sovereign is again one of those coins that has been on my radar for a little while; it's still in a sealed plastic packaging, the price was VERY good, and so it didn't take much to persuade me to press the button

    Thank you @SILVERFINGER - I've absolutely no idea if I paid over the top for it, but it was only £7 and I'm a happy bunny
    Looking at the photo, it is quite an eclectic mix that I picked up at the weekend - but that's a big part of the fun and enjoyment in collecting PMs and coins, I feel

    Your old 3D coin might only be nickel brass but its like some cars from the 1970's that were not loved much at the time, you get a totally mint condition Austin Allegro and there will be as many people interested and looking at that as an E type jag at the classic car shows I go to because its so rare to find one in that condition if at all these days, nice set there.

    Well I personally have never seen one in such good condition, and recently I paid well over the odds for a third reich 5 marks coin, it wasn't a rare coin by any means, but the condition it was in was because nearly all have been well used, but it makes me happy and hasn't broke the bank so thats good enough for me.

    Posted on another thread, but thought might be useful for others. 
    I like all my gold coins in ringed capsules cause they look nicer. I stack sovs, 1/4 oz and basically anything that fits the standard ringed capsules that coingallery sells. 
     
    I found that 1 oz generic silver tubes store these quite well. Cheaper and easier to label etc. Up to 11 in a tube. Easier to stack in a safe or in my case safety deposit boxes. Or even in a monster box if you have that many lol 😂 
    for half sovs in ringed capsules- half crown tubes do nicely.
    Feel free to add yours to this thread

    Looking at some of the very impressive photos of other SF members' latest acquisitions, I feel almost embarrassed to post a picture of my modest little 10th ounce Britannia....
    but I did manage to pick it up just below spot....
    and it's gold....
    and it's nice and shiny....

    Continuing my "small is beautiful" (as well as being very affordable 😉) policy when it comes to acquiring more gold, I was pleased when the postman knocked the door this morning with a 1912 Half Sovereign that I did a deal on a few days ago for £135.
    Its definitely passed through quite a few hands over the last 100 years or so, as can be seen when examined under a loop - but for the money, I'm very happy to be able to add it to my stack 😎
