I wonder what sort of story some of these older bars have behind them, particularly from some of the older banks/mines that no longer exist

A couple of others I've yet to stash away, some history .

Yeah, bought as bog standard bullion but not too shoddy for its age....I’d like to think the same about me ! Maybe start a new thread to get opinions. Would cost £50 to get graded and delivered...worth it ?

Got to say from those pictures this looks like a possible MS65. I graded a nice one last year and got a MS64 but yours looks better to me !!

Would it be worth grading though?  will cost me £30 for sure when all is said and done. Do 65s go for a sum ? I will have to check to assess the risk.

Over 8,000,000,000 were minted so if you factor in £300 I paid for the coin then add £30 if I graded it with no guarantee of getting a 65 and it might just be better for me to keep my coin raw and safely stored.

 

This one sold early January for £330

Thank you mr postman. First one the RMC I've seen in the UK. Been after one for a good few month

 

[goldking]

Postie has just been and my first 'big ticket' coin has arrived!  Exciting!  

it finds a home with my 3 sovs purchased last week :

 

Thanks @goluckystayhappy 

[Gibby]

Excuse the poor lighting, new camera with bells and whistles, should have bought a point and shoot, much easier. Anyway, an 1871 Sovereign I recently bought

[LiquidMetalsUK]

Getting there slowly but surely 😁

[diesel]

After an age of waiting. 
 

Beautiful.

 

[matrawr]

My first sovereign!  Only one person knows how excited I am to get my hands on this!

Lovely coin and a great first buy. Try not to keep looking at it, you might wear it down!

Thanks Karl! I've probably looked at the photo about 6 times! 😛 

I feel quite proud to have joined the Sov club! 👍

Krugerrand was going at the right price last week so couldn’t resist. Just arrived.

[CoinStruck]

This was part of a recent mystery coin swap with a fellow YouTube. Just a beautiful coin.

Thanks to @richatthecroft for this beautiful 2012 £2. A stunner!

Came through the post yesterday, 1908 half sovereign from @Tommmmy555. 

[Oldun]

Excellent packing.

[ilovesilverireallydo]

So today I picked up something I think is special. 1908 D No Motto Indian Head $10.

I am sorely tempted to grade this.

NGC Estimates - MS63 $7.1k, MS66 $120k MS67 $195k. 

[goldking]

 Postie just been again.  Another 1ozer 1978 Krugerrand from @goluckystayhappy to go with my other one!

Whoa! Get that coin stuck in the post immediately to NGC, $195k will come in handy 😀

Lol 😂 I doubt it’s going top grade. 64 plus would be tempting
