    3 Chunky vintage German Degussa gram weight bars added to the stack. Not to be confused with the previously acquired Austrian gussa bars on the left (for size & logo comparison). Grabbing low ring 1968 25 pesos when the price is right is a no-brainer ;-)

    Degussa and gussa have merged, so your bars are 'related'. :)
    Today the company is a subsidiary operation of AGOSI / Umicore, so you need some Umicore bars as well. :)

    Thanks, for confirming my suspicions. I was looking at all the cool pictures of bars on www.silverbarren.de and when I saw the Umicore bars I thought they also had a similar look to the Degussa and gussa bars.

    Latest pickups, I'm really loving the new monarch "tiny chunky" style bars. I wish we had picked up some Johnson Matthy Salt Lake City bars back when they got as low as around $500 USD each but we'll settle for getting them at spot when they are going for crazy premiums right now.

    bought my last gold. picked up a 2013 PM roo to round out my numbers. only buying silver now until such time as I get a chance to do a GSR style swap. Will hopefully pick up some lunars and kooks before the GSR drops significantly.

    A new smartphone. I wanted a cheap one, so I took a punt on a Chinese ZTE Blade S6. Cost $200 on eBay during the 15% sale.

    I've just finished the always-tedious business of setting the thing up, but so far it seems fine. Bloody amazing at the price, TBH.

    I still got my Samsung Galaxy S2. I used to update my smart phone every year or two but stopped doing it after getting this phone coz it's got everything I need. A full HD camera and able to use any app I need and play most games I want. Also, every other phone that came out since S2 only has gimmicks and stuff I don't really need.

    How see's what I see?

    I never noticed that Engelhard Australia used 2 different stamps for their 1oz Gold Buttons.

    See for your self.

    I would love your feedback and does anyone have more of one rather than the other?

    I think the one on the right in my pics is less common.
