One of my stacking goals for year 2020 is to complete a tube of American Prospector Silver Rounds that were produced by the Engelhar Mint on a limited run from 1982 to 1987.
Three months ago, I started that journey and shared my progress with you.

Two 1982s, five1984s, and one 1987.
Let us open this package from an eBay seller. As always, I negotiated for a better price than advertised, and I got these silver rounds for a great deal!
Part of the fun in stacking is the satisfaction derived from the ritual of adding the new silver pickups to the stack, and in this case, adding the silver rounds to the tube.
To do that, I have to transfer the rounds from the flip into air-tite capsules. These silver rounds are in brilliant uncirculated condition [which, according to the seller, came straight from an unopened original tube] and I want to keep it that way. I do not want to handle the rounds with my bare fingers.

famous American Prospector series.
Obverse: Depicts a prospector panning for Gold, the words "U.S.A.", the year of issue and "The American Prospector."
Reverse: Displays an American Eagle along with the weight and purity of the round.
I now have a total of 10 Engelhard Prospector rounds:
two 1982s, five1984s, two 1986s,and one 1987.
The tube goes back inside the cigar Silver Box for safekeeping
We will revisit the cigar Silver Box again
on the next edition of Thursday Tubular Journey.
Come along with me in my journey to complete
a tube of Engelhard American Prospector Silver Rounds!
