Just some Thalers which I like to stack 

[Gildeon]

My coins arrived from the latest grading as well, thanks to @Numistacker

Generally very satisfied, some notes:

• Once again I had a Details grade. Unlike the previous one, which had clear hairlines once I looked more carefully, this one didn't. I may post detailed pictures elsewhere trying to get some more expert opinions. ?
• The Sovereign did as expected (low MS, bought as bullion).
• From the remaining six silver coins, five have the highest grades in the census. Three of them (Austria, Germany and Switzerland) are the only ones! ?
• Overall I believe I am getting better at picking them, with a minor glitch every time... ?

[Gildeon]

Forgot to mention that the German Mark is a little sideways but no big hassle! ?

A BIG FAT FAKE !!!!!! Bought from Ebay at a few % above spot. Be aware if you see a 1914 Half Indian on Ebay for sale again. Im giving the seller the benefit of the doubt as i received my money back and seemed genuinely sorry. If it does come up for sale again then i will release more details

If you look closely and know what to look for the 9 is way out of kilter and the stars do not align as close to the edge as they should do and inconsistent reeding around the edge. The biggest giveaway.... Half the weight it should have been. Not magnetic which makes me think it might be silver coated in gold. I haven't been bothered  to look at the back. Any questions then please PM. Cheers

Is £260 a reasonable price for a 2005 bullion sovereign as my local bullion dealer in the high street has one at this price?

It's in a capsule and looks tidy but haven't the funds until next month. Probably will be snapped up by then.

That is a shame ask them if you can put a small deposit down
