Unexpected pick up today from a local charity shop. Not really a subject close to my heart but 1oz of sterling for £8 can't be bad 🙂

I really should do more charity shop hunting. I once bought a breitling for £30 in a charity shop. Felt really bad so had to donate £500 of the profits back. 

That's a good buy for £8

Picked up some U.S. Modern Commemoratives at the LCS today, including a couple of special ones I couldn't pass up once I saw them.  2000-W Library of Congress $10 Gold/Platinum Bi-Metallic in Proof and BU.  In silver, the 2000-P BU Leif Ericson $1,  2001-P BU U.S. Capitol $1, 2002-W BU West Point $1, and the 2002-P BU Winter Olympics $1.

Just grabbed a 2nd 10oz Gairsoppa, was up for £299 and put in a cheecky offer of £220 and got it for £230

I will re-felt the box as there is a tear in the original.

 

Currently thinking I should grab another 10oz + a couple of 1oz gairsoppa britannia and do a commision with backyard bullion to create the world first 1kg Gairsoppa bar.

Bought a piece that I will probably never part with and pass down to my son and generations to follow...a 2009 1 oz Gold Ultra High Relief Double Eagle! This will be a beautiful and exciting addition!

[mr-dead]

Just grabbed 3 X 10oz Gairsoppa bars, not the nice boxed edition of 4700 as above.

Coming from Canada so fingers crossed on the import duty

A 2019 half sovereign 

[silenceissilver]

Some coins I picked up during my holidays, a few days ago

Maria Theresia - Madonna-Taler 1776  S.K -P.D Kremnitz

Another Maria Theresien Taler but the modern bullion version

And a one ounce Austrian Philharmonic from 1996, so still with the denomination in Schilling

Picked up at the LCS today.  2009-W Proof $5 George Washington gold commemorative.  And in silver the 1988-D BU Olympic, 2006-P BU Benjamin Franklin Founding Father,  2007-P BU Jamestown, and 2008-P Proof Bald Eagle.

NGC PF 70 1oz silver Yale of Beaufort & NGC MS 70 2oz silver Yale of Beaufort, which is my 1st 2oz QB coin & probably my only one but I love the design.

[Gildeon]

Just won this at an auction. 😎

Morning, anyone buying from silver-to-go can I ask is it safe to pay via bank transfer? Only reason I'm asking I bought 10 1oz coins last night, wired the money over but I'm still waiting for confirmation of my payment?

Does anyone have any feedback paying via bank transfer to these?

Thanks

Adam.

Ok...so as we all know, imbibing whisky and making gold purchases don’t really mix very well...bought a Russia Gold 50 Roubles St. George BU random date...swear the dang thing was a Gold Sov😆! 

[mr1030]

Good day at the LCS.  Filled a lot of holes in my U.S. Modern Commemoratives Albums.

2012 Proof Infantry, 1994 Proof U.S. Capitol, 1992 BU Olympics Baseball

Took the plunge and bought this 1701 William III 5 Guineas fine work. 

Quite pleased as you don't see too many around

[NorthEast]

Today I bought a mint roll of 25 2018 Britannias from Provident for $412! Good deal 👍

[RacerCool]

Yet another of my fractional favorite, the 5 peso coin:

Today after stalking APMEX for weeks I was the first to purchase the Chiwoo Gold Ghost rounds. APMEX only has 9 left... 

[Stackerads]

Just had a offer accepted on a 100 Oz Johnson Matthey hand poured silver bar, very good price at £1350 I think.

On Friday, I used my trip to London to attend the Brexit demonstrations to get my first Shield Back Sovereign, in the Hatton Garden area.

Victoria 1882; 9VF / EF

[Fastnick]

Whist not quite of the same magnitude of some of the above acquisitions, I am nonetheless very pleased to have just picked up a BU 2009 Kookaburra for just £16.00, plus very reasonable postage costs

Hi, have these arrived yet? Was there any duty to pay? 

[mr-dead]

Bought 4 bars in the end, just been released by customs but did get hit with vat and handling charge
