the 1870 looks promising.

you've got two 1865's in your date run .

the 70 is a beauty

The 1849 US gold Type I open wreath $1. It's really small - but really rather nice...with some lustre, but also some scratches. Mind you - it's been around since the 1849 gold rush?

An empty paper envelope!!

 

 

 

 

Just messing.  It could have been though.  If you're going to send a £500 coin in the post, you should really spend the extra 50p on a decent envelope.  Luckily the coin was still in there despite the rip/hole and he'd used Special Delivery so if it had fallen out he should have been covered.

1/2 oz Platinum Eagle.  27mm coin but managed to squeeze it into a 25mm ringed T capsule.  If it hadn't fit, then it would have had to go into a 27mm H cap which I think is a little big for such a small coin.

[Oldun]

As usual, sorry for the poor quality photos but these just fluttered in. Time for annual gamble on mintage numbers. It's always fun every year as no one knows.

 1oz PF70  and an Early Release 2oz PF70 2016 silver libertads.

For once it wasn't Royal Mint who was the culprit...

Yes the 70 is the one that jumped out at me as being in better condition than the rest and maybe even almost uncirculated in my strict grading.

[Chugnstack]

Just my monthly sovereign for October, a 2015.

The 2oz casing is massive!

[Oldun]

lol. Yes, it really is - bigger than a person's hand by some margin (I think they used a 5oz holder) To give you an idea, watch numistacker's vid for an idea.

x2 Krugerrand

First Krugs I've ever held......must say that even allowing for the couple of gram weight difference, these 'feel' a lot more substantial than Brits.

I think I might stick with stacking Krugs from now on, as long as I can stop the terrible South African accent when handling them  and I keep breaking into the Spitting Image song
