    1/10oz Au Horse doesn't come out in any of the photos.
    1oz Noahs Ark
    1oz 2015 Kookaburra
    5x 1oz Year of the Goat
    1oz Bullion List/Southern Cross bullion button
    1x 1oz round and 1x 1oz bar from AGSX in a handy re-usable display box - just the sort of thing I've been looking for, for ages.

    Visited the LCS over here, just to check out what they had to offer.

    Not much to offer but they did have some old mexican coins which I don't have yet.

    Picked up these little beauties over the weekend. Spot price helped but they were bargains so I couldn't help myself. Excuse the dog hair on the lens.

    Thanks mate. Some nice light swirls. I don't know the age but the toning and the swan facing left makes me think it has a few years on it.

    They look nice in the pictures, I have picked up a few just to add a bit of variety to my stack and as an example of what design features can be achieved, as opposed to just printing a picture on a coin.

    Why not so happy?

    I think they're great, very impressive for a low premium round.

    I like them but I guess I like the white starkness of the omnia's and are my preference over these but it's good to have a few

    I think you were even more generous to only buzz two and let another stacker have a go as well.

    Now that's something!
