#PirateSunday: Flyin' The Flag And Showin' Off Booty

Oh yes Hive account@stokjockey, there be pirates in the Pacific Northwest! A whole family of 'em, flying the Jolly Roger high above our sailing vessel! AAARRRRRRRRGGGGGH!!!!!

Let's begin this #PirateSunday with a little story & a treasure hunt. About 2 weeks ago I was parusing my feed and ...............

It's another epic gold pour by the Lady of the Bunker, hosted by the one and only @stokjockey himself.

First of all, can I just say, these gold bars pourd at the Bunker are amazing! I mean, I don't know how they keep from exploding with excitement just HOLDING one of these buauties.

Anyhow, I'm enjoying the video and as it is coming to an end and I see it, in a pile of booty

Do you see it? Mixed in with the dimes & quarters, beautifully blackened, it just stands out.

I hear Stok and the Lady of the Bunker talking about a Barber half dollar, then the video ends. As I read through the rest of the post I see it again, and it looks like Hive account@stokjockey thinks this 1895-O Barber Half Dollar is nice enough for ebay.

EBAY?!?

I take action with a comment about how I would like to own that piece of numismatic silver. Well, sure as shit, the Jockey is on the ball, he names a price too good to be true ......in SBD!

Well, you can bet I accepted that offer like a drunken pirate. And after a week away from home, I returened yesterday to my treasure...

...And the reverse...

This is my first piece of numismatic silver and needless to say (so I'll say it) I am very excited. I like to think about where this coin may have been, the pockets and bags and cash drawers...

But I digress, I want to say thanks to Hive account@stokjockey for being a badass stacker, and for making this a smooth transaction using cryptocurrency...pro move.

So before this #piratesunday post draws to a close

I want to share one more interesting fact about this coin, and I guess they are now part of the coins lore as are the many who have held this coin prior.....
