After a few months of being of the steemit airwaves, it feels good to once again share my treasures that I have amassed in the elapsed time of absence. I really missed seeing all of your posts and need to update as well as get updated about a few things.
Its a long hectic yet enjoyably motivating month or two since I added value to my steemsilvergold community and striving to be the faithful stacker that I aspire to be, I have naturally added a few ounces to share with you all!
Its almost time to get a new lockbox! There are worse problems to have than filled coffers I suppose!
Let's check out the new adds, shall me?
So in the past 2 months I have amassed 23.5128 troy ounces of the fine stuff. The photo above shows the contents of 2 packages that I received in one day from JMbullion and Scottsdale Mint.
I've only been stacking (with purpose) for about 2 years now so I'm still at the point where I am always looking to purchase something new to marvel at and see in person. At least when it comes to silver, I have come to prefer 10 ounce bars and like variety very much. I had always wanted to own more Scottsdale products and up until this point only had a 1 ounce lion bar.
It was high time to pull the trigger on something a little more impressive, Scottsdale poured silver! BOOM! ordered straight from Scottsdale Mint. Perhaps the premiums are slightly higher, but they have a fuller selection of their products and they ship promptly! I'm very pleased with their service and will order from them again! Highly recommended mint!
I also, had been curious about the 10 ounce Patriot Stacker bar that is also made by Scottsdale. This one was available on JMbullion ( my usual go-to) and I'm very happy that I finally pulled the trigger on this one! The front of the bar is very sleek and mirror-like, however my favorite part about this bar is its reverse! It has this weld-looking spiral pattern that terminates with a mini scottsdale lion in the center! Super cool when you can still see your reflection within this attention to detail!
Next up, some 2018 Perth Mint offerings! You all know Perth mint for their extraordinarily beautiful semi-numistacking coins! As you probably do the same, I had to pick up a 2018 Kook (LOVE the MOON in this design) and the 2 ounce year of the dog I got for my bride-to-be! I will most likely pick up at least 5 more kookaburras this year and a few Lunar Series II dogs in their 1 ounce variety at some point this year.
So in the past month we have been helping my fiancee's mother pack up her belongings, move and sell her house. In the process I have come across something that I enjoy and appreciate deeply that she let me keep, some JUNK SILVER. Of course, it ain't junk but you know what I mean!
3 Mercury Dimes and 2 40% post 1964 JFK half dollars. This amounts to .5128 troy ounces of silver. A little bonus!
Last but not least, I have delved into some uncharted territory which is unfamily to me. South Korean silver! Up until this point I had only mildly been aware of the series that Korea has been releasing for the past 3 years called the Chiwoo Cheonwang (affectionately referred to in the US as, John Wayne.) I saw that they just went on resale so I said, "well shit, this design's a winner."
With a mintage of only 45,000 globally and lower premium, as well as a successful appreciation of last years edition, it seemed like a know brainer to me so I locked my self down for 10 of them! They do not ship out till May 31st however, but man is the anticipation building up!
Thanks for getting back into the loop with me! It's always a pleasure to share this this hobby of wealth preservation with all of you guys! I hope that you have found it motivating and eager to stay stacking! Thanks for being a part of my journey and letting me be apart of yours!
P.S. QUESTION: Where those 2018 steem rounds at?
