So i am now on my holiday and it means i can relax for 2 weeks and hopefully pick up a nice bit of silver, i have also brought my old DSLR with a small equitorial mount to do a bit of astrophotography, it is amazing how versatile a camera over a decade old can be, as you can see from my 1st image using a 300mm lens on a Canon 1000d of a bird of prey (not a clue what it is) but it was at the service station near stanstead airport while i waited for the electric car to charge.
This is the camera & lens combo i used for all the photos of planes & the bird, i have added a red dot finder to the top and a vixen rail to mount it to my skywatcher az gti eq.
Anyway enough about cameras and let me show you the last bit of silver i bought before i went on my jollys.
I have not done any research on this coin of yet but from what i can remember it is one of the German states, it is not the best condition and has a value of around £8 with the silver value probably around the £1 mark.
This has become my pocket piece of silver for the moment until i find something else quirky and it can go into my safe with all the other random bits & pieces.
While i was charging the car i was under the flight path of Stanstead airport so i could snap a plane every few mins which was nice, not a clue what any of them are and the last plane not even sure what the hell it was.
This is the plane i didnt have a clue on has it has no livery so maybe a private jet.
Remember dont drink & ebay as you will end up a knights helmet and a hangover, hope your all well and sending my best wishes.

Excellent camera setup, awesome to have a shilling in the collection - a medieval pairing with the helmet :D
The camera setup us light as I can't take my telescope everywhere I go
I really like that camera setup. It will make for some nice phot captures to post here on Hive for sure. The coin is very intriguing. Where did you grab it?
Dunno, sounds like lots of fun to me
