Ok, let's take a break from my Holy Silver posts, for an unboxing of fresh silver!
Let's open this baby up and see what we got this time 🎉🎉
Three silver pieces! Neat!
Let's have a better look!
The first piece is a commerorative one dollar from Canada minted in 1981, for the 100th anniversary of the Trans Canada railway. Hence the old school train on the front. Duh!
This babe weights 23.32 grams, with a purity of 0.500.
Our next piece is also a one dollar from the same country:
Again, a commemorative coin from 1983, for the 1983 World University Games (whatever the fuck that is) in Edmonton.
Same specs again, 23.32 g of 0.500 silver.
Like other commemorative Canadian coins, both of them have a shiny mirror finish which I have grown to find quite annoying, especially when I am trying to take a photo. Pics come out shit and I have to be careful not to dox myself, lmao 🤣😂
On the back, they both feature the same portrait of a young hot lady
🍌 💦
And finally we have...
A Turkish lira from 1948! Technically, it's also my first Turkish coin, since the rest of my Turkish pieces were minted while it was still known as the Ottoman Empire.
This plain little fella weights 7.5 grams and is made of 0.600 silver.
Ok, that's it for today! Eventually I will make a post about each coin but in the meantime I want to finish my holy silver series. I have plenty more to cover!
Stack on!
