wow, if you are continuing,  we are getting jealous.  So, we are waiting for the next 😀😄

in the meantime, lets go to China, a coin that i received in the years 80 as present from a supplier when I was my own boss. I have still contact with him.

No one here can compete with @panzerman for gold. Anyway, here's my last purchase, with a somewhat "Boscoreale look" to it (read reddish patina) that I like very much

I thought I might have posted here but I don't see it. Haven't been buying much lately but I do have this set of Sovereigns.

This 7 gold sovereign coin set confuses me but I like it. It states these are assembled with actual coinage meant for circulation so I am thinking these dates are accurate and the coins are really that old. The COA states this and also says that they are in at least VF condition, however these all appear to be in uncirculated condition without any super close examination. They are all pleasing examples.

I thought they would have a date on them for 2000 or something since the booklet is copyrighted as such. This is set number 819 out of the total 958 sets that were assembled by The Royal Mint.

One 1925 dated London Mint sovereign (no mintmark).
One 1925 dated sovereign from the Sydney Mint in Australia (mintmark S).
One 1925 dated sovereign from the Melbourne Mint in Australia (mintmark M).
One 1919 dated sovereign from the Perth Mint in Australia (mintmark P).
One 1911 dated sovereign from the Ottawa Canada Mint (mintmark C).
One 1918 dated sovereign from the Bombay India Mint (mintmark I).
One 1925 dated sovereign from the Pretoria South Africa Mint (mintmark S.A.)

My first (and probably only) gold coin of any kind purchased in 2023, and my only French coin not minted in Paris. I took advantage of the dealer's 30% off sale to buy it at a reasonable price.

France, Second Empire, Napoleon III, AV (.900 fineness), 10 Francs, 1860 BB (Strasbourg Mint). Obv. Bare head of Napoleon III right, NAPOLEON III – EMPEREUR around, BARRE beneath [engraver Jean Jacques Barre], flanked by privy marks of bee to left [mark of Alfred Renouard de Bussière, Mint Master, Strasbourg (1834-1860)] and anchor to right [mark of Désiré-Albert Barre, General coin engraver, Paris (1855-1878), son of Jean Jacques Barre] / Rev. 10 | FRANCS |1860 in three lines, within a wreath made of two laurel branches linked at their base by a ribbon, EMPIRE FRANÇAIS around, BB [mint mark for Strasbourg] beneath wreath. KM (Krause-Mishler) 784.4 [see George S. Cuhaj & Thomas Michael, Standard Catalog of World Gold Coins (6th ed. 2009), at p. 408]; F. 506/11 [Le Franc Poche, Guide des Prix des Monnaies Françaises (13th ed. 2022)]. 19 mm., 3.2 g.  Purchased from Ingemar Wallin Mynthandel, Uppsala, Sweden, 18 Sep 2023.

Not modern but I just added this my collection:

image.jpeg.17a08ef49f4ec099914ae375b20caae7.jpeg

Peru, Charles III, 1759-1788, 1782 LM-MI, 8 Escudos, AU/UNC, Lima mint, KM82.1, Fr-32. 

Composition: Gold (.901)
Weight: 27.0674 g

The bonus for me is that it included an old Mehl envelope. How about that price!!!
