    I have the 25 Oz

    Also some 7.62 NATO 2 Oz bullets, and some boxes of the 0.45 1 Oz ones

    I like the 2 Oz NATO ones the best

    Not planning to buy for a while so taking delivery of my allocated purchases and transferring to SDB - these are from PB (shitty phone camera and lighting)

    2015 10 oz Kookaburra
    2015 10 oz Koala
    2x Shenandoah ATB 5 oz
    Everlades ATB 5 oz
    Snake 5 oz

    ATB coins are a bit rough, my only other ATB is Mt Rushmore from APMEX through Maggie and that it great condition so I guess I got lucky. Very happy with the koala for the price and the snake is a beauty.

    Today I bought a 1/2oz s1 dragon proof for $25. Pretty happy about that one, it's going in the pool room.

    I also picked up a great pile of Australian $200 proof gold coins and a 1/2oz platinum proof koala. Those are likely to end up in the for sale section. Although the more I think about it the more I like the platinum coin, apparently it comes paired with a small commemorative silver ingot which I haven't seen, intriguing...

    The 5oz 2oz and 100g Scottsdale stacker rounk. The smooth sides do give it an industrial look from the side but the detail in the lions head is amazing. I can see why they went with a smooth sedge, lining up a readed edge could drive those among us with OCD nutz.

    Now are they swirls or are they ripples?

    I think they are ripples which are waay cooler than random swirliness.

    Can you tell the age of the bar by counting the rings?

    Picked up a kilo or so of world silver from a stacker on the site, just going through it trying to identify some of the Arabic looking coins (including the Ottoman Empire, don't hear much from them nowadays) and I came across this coin from Uruguay, 1942, only year it was minted with around 9 million or so made, so not rare but not something you see everyday.

    I have been looking at them on and off for a few years but have never bought one from eBay

    A very welcome addition to the stack and one that probably won't get cleaned up and put in the treasure chest.

    They have reused this design as a $10 bi-metallic coin but it really doesn't do it justice.

    Finally got myself a 100oz silver bar. This thing is quite heavy!

    And it was interesting to see the price of the bar 7 years ago. Maybe I should write down the price I paid for this bar just to add to its "character".
