    I think the Mayflower commerative is one of the best commeratives, modern or otherwise. Classic design.

    If you like UK coins and Britannia's, this is one pair certificate #064 of 500. Only pop 2 and pop 6 (in this variety) PCGS coins in a Gold Shield holder. I am considering selling, but it is not a low-price version.


    Very cool. 😎

    I never showed my other gold Britannia. The half ounce finally showed in the mail and I had the quarter ounce initially.

    The picture captured this one very nicely:

    And then this week, I got the silver one, was holding out for a 70 but cannot find one anywhere so I settled for a 69, luckily this thing does not have any milk spots! That was my biggest fear…

    And then, just by pure chance, the platinum ones came in the shop on Friday, so I grabbed one of the 1/10 ounce:

    This just leaves me wanting the full ounce platinum, and I will then be satisfied with my little Britannia hoard.

    Recent DC purchase.

    Great bars! What does the writing in the circle top stamp say? I can’t make it out.

    It is a vintage marking device. It reads :
    "MASSCO - Mine And Smelter Supply Company / Denver, Salt Lake City, El Paso, New York"

    I grabbed enough aluminum cans Monday night (>2K), mostly out of one dumpster at a boat landing/campground, to purchase another Silver Eagle.

    It takes 2000 cans or 60 pounds of aluminum cans to purchase a silver eagle now.

    I have 6 silver eagles worth of aluminum cans sitting in the garage at the moment despite the multiple hurricane disruptions. The past two months have been good ones as I've expanded the number of sites I visit. Now I need to find the homes of some more heavy beer-drinkers to take it to the next level. They can provide $50-150 of income per household per year.

    I have that saved in my "watch list" on eBay, mostly because I am curious if it will sell or not (way too much for me to afford to purchase, unfortunately).

    A recent purchase. Don't know much about it, except it is sort of interesting and I like the older vintage silver the most. I do see a few 1- and 10-ounce versions that sell for a premium.

  • GoldminersGoldminers Posts: 4,022 ✭✭✭✭✭

    A couple other 10-ounce bars.
