RE: Silver of the Day #11: 2018 Steem Silver Round
Very nice. I'm glad you were able to get them. You've got yourself quite a stack already, and this has to be like some icing or something. Or maybe it's all red meat. Hard to tell when it's all silver which might be the shiniest of the shiny, but I'm sure you've got to have your favorites.
Thanks, they're some of my favorites already. My stack is still fairly small, but it's growing. I do what I can to make sure that I continue to add to it.
These rounds are definitely in the top. They're contenders. I think one of my favorites is the Silver American Eagle that I carry with me. I spend a fair amount of downtime flipping it in the air. As far as designs go though, the 2018 Steem Round would be hard to beat.
Well, you need to have something to carry with you and flip in the air. Otherwise, I don't think you really have stackitus, right? I mean, if you can leave home without the shiny, are you really infected with the disease? I think not.
I'm not sure about the difference between the round and the American Eagle, but I'm guessing the latter fits easier in your pocket and would be easier to flip than the former. You want to look cool when you're doing this, obviously, not awkward.
However, the way I envision this going down as you're walking down the street has absolutely nothing to do with the No Name persona you've got going here. It's more like the Monopoly Man, because, of course, that's how all people stacking silver look. :)
Oh, I have my silver eagle in my pocket when I leave the house. If I'm not driving, I flip it in the car while we drive. I've got it bad, brother! Ha ha.
The American Eagle has a different design than the Steem Silver round and was made by the US government, not a private mint. I would carry the steem round with me, but being that it's rare (only 1,500 minted) if I lost it, it would be hard to replace. I have two, so there's a spare, but still, I don't want to risk something so rare. I can always get another silver eagle.
Ha ha, that's true. No Name doesn't care about flipping silver dollars.
