I love that 2003 Brit.  Even though the 2003 design has a higher mintage than some of the other alternative designs, it’s still a looker of a coin.  Matte proof too.  Nice ?.

Arrival from Sharps Pixley a 1876-M G&D. Shame about the edge knock.

I also note their listing is all over the place, completely wrong year range, and misleading photo showing 1850 when they are only st. george. Don't buy them thinking they are shields

Very misleading indeed. But I never expect shields when buying from bullion dealers.

Do they (or hatton) ever get shields in? I haven’t seen any although only watched closely for the last few months

1986-W Statue of Liberty and 1987-W Constitution $5 Commems, and a 1927 Netherlands 10 Guilders.  Got each for $5 over spot.  The $5 commems were a pleasant surprise as they were advertised as just random dates in capsules only.  Guess they ran out and sent me graded ones instead.

Where did you source and what price did you pay if you don't mind saying? It looks like a very nice coin.

The same with postage added but its a much nicer coin. Yet to hear from Atkinsons, they have the other one back.

Delivered from HGM today. A couple of the 2012s they have at the moment and the one for luck turned out to be a 1968 in nice condition.
