KT had been warned last week by the Bank's Vault Teller that there may be changes on the horizon, particularly a short fall of the half boxes weekly ordered by KT.
This is a problem with Loomis, as the order for 5 was made, but only 4 boxes delivered. KT took the 4 so this may be the start of something different in His Majesty's future, but who knows!?!
Anyway, below are the results of the 4 box CRH:
Box 1 - 1 40% Ag Ken, 1 Proof
Box 2 - nothing
Box 3 - 1 Proof
Box 4 - 1 Proof
Total - 1 40% Ag Ken, 3 Proofs. The silver Ken was very dirty and it took two lengthy dippings and cleanings to get it to look decent. It had some green on it which turned out to be tape residue, that was removed with acetone and a couple of applications of Q-tips, and once that was removed then the cleaning in sterling silver cleaner was done. Came out ok.
Here are the pics as proof of recovery....no pun intended!
