I’ve seen a couple of fake sovereigns but I’m posting this as a warning to other forum members.
This is a fake sovereign, you’ve been warned. 😆
I’m glad I didn’t have to break the news to him.

Received today, the new 2021 1/10th Oz Britannia with the new security features and although small, the detailing is very impressive.

Picked this set up from @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer. I’m currently collecting the 1oz special reverse gold Britannia years in bullion grade but when it came to the 2005 it was proving rather difficult to find. With the help of @Roy (thanks!) I discovered that there were in fact no bullion gold Britannia’s issued by the Royal Mint in 2005, just the proof and it was a special reverse design year. The 1/4 and 1/10 proofs were made available individually but the 1/2 and 1oz were only available in the set, 1439 made so I took the plunge! Think I’ll have them graded and see how they get on

Thanks Max if your on here. 

I got the 1887 double Sovereign and it is a very shiny yellow goldcoin, not so copper shining dark as the rare 2 Pounds 1893 Queen...🤩  

 
 

2012 5sov PR70 just back from grading 😍
 

Johnson Matthey 1985 LTS, didn't realise it was a proof til it arrived! Have seen a few boxed ones, but never seen one of these with this assay or capsule before. 
 
 

This overly frustrating acquisition arrived...2020 End of World War II 75th Anniversary American Eagle Silver Proof Coin.




And the returned Pay Attention 007 2020 UK Quarter-Ounce Gold Proof, second coin has arrived to close out the series.



The complete James Bond series...tribute to Sean Connery, the one true 007!

Two more 2018 silver oriental Britannia’s to add to the collection.
These have been my favourite designs in the Britannia’s so far and it’s a shame the series only lasted three years.
I’m hoping this will be sought after in the future with the limited mintages.

Wow. What an impressive collection.

2 years, 4 months, 6 days as a Forum member and investing in PM's I have hit three kilos of Gold milestone now breached 👍
With thanks to the wider Forum 🙂 and The European Mint where I have purchased a large majority of my Queens Beast coins.
I have had to sell large proportion of my Silver and part of my Gold stack to finish off remaining 1oz Gold Queens Beast coins and a special thanks to everyone traded with me/provided help and advice:

Drum roll please for the main attraction.......
100 oz Gold Queens Beast bullion coins

Received last week. Lovely 2017 SOTD Platinum Anniversary Sov to go with the 2017 Anniversary’s 
Many thanks to @terakris

It would appear that we are in the same boat!
The Mrs "More silver? How much was that?".
Me " Errrrmmm only about twenty quid. Nice isn't it? It's for the kids really".
The Mrs "Hmmmm....."

The gold just keeps coming

If I bought as much shiney as I wanted to, my Mrs would recreate game of thrones by melting it down and pouring it down my throat 😂

It’s the little voice in your head that says “Ohhhh that’s nice, I think I need one of them” that you’ve got to ignore
