Sorry I haven’t been around the last couple of weeks. I’ve been feeling very tired and in between keeping our business running have been helping @andysantics48 with a website for her new business. I’m sure she’ll be sharing that with you soon. But my energy seems to be returning, and I have something too exciting not to share.

On top of my previous prizes of a Steem Silver round from @buggedout, and a Prospectors Silver 1 oz bar from @firecajun9262 (see my previous post about those here), I won first prize in the recent SSG community Monster Silver Raffle! I was so excited and overwhelmed that I could hardly type in Discord to respond, as I was shaking so much!
My super exciting package arrived yesterday, all the way from Florida, USA to Wellington, New Zealand.

My amazing first prize was a 5 oz Silver Vicksburg National Military Park Coin 2011, donated by @tbnfl4sun

Isn’t this just beautiful! A truly awesome piece. And here’s the other side. Note that the blue is reflecting from the background – the coin itself is crystal clear silver.

And here’s a couple of it with my previous two prizes, so you can see them together.


A few years back, @sift666 and I invested in a few Canadian Maples and US Eagles, but it’s so much more fun getting some different coins and sharing them with the community. We have recently also acquired a couple of NZ coins. One has a Silver Fern and the other is a Silver Guardian. So here’s a pic with all our different coins. Sadly I couldn’t get a good shot at all of the Guardian, but for better pics @madein-hisimage has one and posted about it here.

Thanks for reading
