    Its rare that they have so much of interest. The 1/2 ounce philharmonic is something I've been looking for for a while. Very nice coin, even nicer than what I expected.

    Half ounce krugers are also a bit of a rarity, and the 93 full ounce is very minty as you can see. I was happy, my bank balance was not. There were a few more I was interested in, but short of buying everything I really had to get out of there before I found myself single again.

    The gold 50 cent is part of the 2006 fine gold proof RAM set. Only 300 made for 40th anniversary of the original round 50 cent.
    Exactly the same size as the original weight is around 25 grams.

    All the World Cup 2010 numi-gold looks very nice, so much better together with the krugerrands =) Here's the pics for those mates who missed it in other treads.

    AU 79, the PM silver you've got there is looking very golden in that last photo, almost thought it was all gold!

    Here's my contribution:

    Was trying to get a GSR of 1:1 in terms of value, but with silver's ratio to gold getting closer all the time it's made it a little more difficult.
    I'm 1:1.3 at the moment :p

    I guess you could say that. This design coincides with my "awakening" to precious metals, so it's kinda etched into my psyche.

    This arrived today, I reckon it's a great little set (and I am recently a big fan of the $200 Aussie coins):
