This may well be the nicest coin I own, had to get it to match my BU version.
These will be so sort after imho with a mintage of only 750, had to grab this PF70. This is only available in the 5 coin "long set", which were 3300 RRP and have sold for 5300 on ebay already, only a few for sale atm at 6-8k.
 


 
 
 

El Gordo [the big fat one].

Starting to really like hand poured bars....

3d 3 Oz Templar Knight Bar

A little bit of Gold nothing to fancy

Well, it's definitely a slippery slope this.... Noticed HGM had 2010, 2011 and 2013 full sovereigns listed and as they were gap fillers......
The strike on the 2011 is quite a way off centre - is this normal?

Got the Iron Man today...there are six in the series, I believe. Two more yet to come.
They coincide with movies, so it could be Ant Man/Wasp next and Captain Marvel  early next year, not sure.
Deadpool is a different studio and license. 
 

A few QB pickups : 13 bullion silver Clarences and a few 1/4 gold Bullion QBs: looking for a nice Clarence and a better Unicorn than my current ones to send in for grading....in pursuit of the elusive MS70s.  
As many have commented already - the Clarence Bull silver coins are nice in the hand - none of the sharp ragged edges of the earlier designs in the series.  I will put 3 into deep capsules and keep 10 in a tube for storage.  Will decide what to do once the 10x designs are in the bag.  Also a couple of slabbed Clarences for fellow collectors here on the Forum. 

What a great day it is today! Received these 2 wonderful pieces! 

A few bits to add to the collection. 
The Perth mint 1oz gold Dragon coin bar and the Dragon and Phoenix gold coin. 
 

I bought them in Germany but they don't get shipped out – had to deliver them to a friend, who posted them on...

@morezone on here has some I believe 

Had to pay a premium, but not that much. Around the £200 mark.

I guess most coins like this are melted down, but I find it interesting nonetheless.
Engraving reads "mother to george 1856", no mounts or anything so not sure what the purpose of it would have been?
 

A Perth Mint 99.93 oz silver bar, not a nice round 100oz those with obsessive compulsive disorder need not apply
thanks to @arshimo2012 for a great service as always.

Monster box of 2018 Brits finally arrived after being stuck in France for 3 days due to snow.
Satisfyingly heavy.
 

QB 1oz silver proof red dragon. Another stunner from the series.
 
 
 
 

Did my own grading send as my local ngc was doing a discount campaign. They know me well and threw in the ngc box as a kindness. All the 2017 sov proofs and ms dpl came out well along with some other Aussie and Canadian bits. The 2015s look great side by side as they have two different portraits in the same year on a proof, so a nice pair, as the vicar said to the nurse All have original boxes and coas, of course.
 

Brilliant Roy?

Unicorn five ounce gold proof.

 

Another chunky 1970's ingot from Great Western Coin & Bullion of Modesto, California.
