Today I bought.....


Recommended Posts

Another trip to the LCS today.  Picked up the 2013-W BU and 2013-P Proof 5-Star Generals $1 commemoratives, and the 2006-S Proof San Francisco Old Mint $5.  I love how they used the reverse of the old Liberty half eagles for the SF Old Mint commemorative.

Beautiful. Would love to see a platinum coin in the flesh. 

Are you collecting the whole QB series in platinum? 

I highly recommend adding some platinum to your collection/stack. Hopefully, you can get to examine a platinum coin at a coin shop near you or at the next coin show/fair in your area. Platinum is just slightly denser than gold so it has an even smaller footprint. Love its heft and very nondescript nature (unlike gold that draws attention by its signature yellow color).

The platinum QB Unicorn is my first foray into the Queen's Beast series and for now, I am content not chasing after the rest of them.

I reserved these absolute beauties from @jonrms just after midnight on his Youtube livestream of the launch of his ACE Bullion brand and paid for both this afternoon. I was absolutely over the moon to get both the ones I ideally wanted! @terakris can probably guess which two numbers I went for :D

Absolutely adore the character and detail on these, I cannot wait to receive them!

Today was an expensive day for me.. haha Got my monthly commission check and spent the whole thing with these prices. 

2015 1 oz Gold Britannia from APMEX - On sale $1332

Random Year 1 oz Gold Engelhard Prospector Round from APMEX - $1366

100 oz Scottsdale King Stacker Silver Bar - Ebay from Scottsdale deal $1571

Now the tough part to wait for them to arrive and also hold off on buying anything until next month..

i got this a few days back - i think i got caught up in the rush to buy and so had to wait for delivery. Very clever piece of work.

Always cast your vote - Spoil your ballot slip. Put 'Spoilt Ballot - I do not consent.' These votes are counted. If you do not do this you are consenting to the tyranny. None of them are fit for purpose. 
A tyranny relies on propaganda and force. Once the propaganda fails all that's left is force.

COVID-19 is a cover story for the collapsing economy. Green Energy isn't Green and it isn't Renewable.

Popped into my local town and saw this in window of a charity shop at first I thought it was priced wrong £5 or even not silver I am a silver bullion/coin stacker and not upto scratch with hall marks but thought if it is £5 it's worth a punt went in and the spoke to the nice old lady who said i think the price is correct but I will ask at this point I am thinking great now someone going to say no thats been priced wrong but no another old lady came over and said well that's what it's got on it do you want it so took a punt posted a pic on here in van in carpark to see about hallmarks got home and researched hallmarks and my gamble paid of I say gamble I had a idea the lion ment it was silver

Who here was successful bidding in yesterday’s Heritage Platinum night auction?

Some amazing coins were Auctioned from the Lake County Collection. I failed at all my target coins but I bought one coin only. 

1869 proof Florin. This is a proof of record R3 and the only one graded by either PCGS or NGC..

Congratulations! Lots of British Proofs and Patterns and more on Monday.

I didn't get anything I bid on even though I went much higher than I should have ☹️
