Problem Child

Hi Friends,

Sometimes the only way to succeed, is to overcome failure. When you fuck up, realize that fact and own it — and learn from it — and then move on.

There has been much going on around here lately, and a whole bunch of other stuff is going to be happening — and that’s just around here, and not even to mention the madfuckery that abounds in a more general sense. The major markets are sinking like lead farts and panic and hysteria apparently abounds. It makes me smile and remember a phrase from a few years back: “Bitcoin user unaffected...” which was a kind of mantra for me back then. But check it out, Honey Badger seems to not give any fucks.

BTC, 30 days, channel-surfing $6,500 usd.

I don’t have a chart handy for Gold & Silver, but i believe it to have improved over this time. Anyway, i’m getting way off track — again!

Given the general state of global economic affairs it is my belief that buying and holding physical precious metals is an absolutely bulletproof strategy. And of course, particularly Silver, for all of our favourite reasons. With this in mind i have endeavoured to purchase more ounces — generics, low primo coins etc. — believing that when the time comes to take action i will be better off to have more silver than i would be to have fancy silver. I even spoke about it with @raybrockman, and he’s the one that helped to articulate the above sentiment — so we’ll see how he’s doing soon i’m sure, lofl! I’d bet ol’ Ray-Ray is buying up all kinds of fancy shit!!! 😳😂🤣

And so with this on my mind, i thought that blowing through a canadian hunski on 4 oz of Ag would be a good idea. I might even get some change back!

With the Assassin in a deep trance, i boogied down the block to my LCS

Both rounds (or, Medallions?) are 1oz 999 Ag.

Nerding out HARD!!!

I have wanted to get my hands on some of these for a long time, and even though i got the “shocker” at my lcs (see ud 😳) these awesome Apollo rounds looked way better than a boring old Maple!

And i grabbed a couple of 1/2 ouncers because they were awesome too!!!

$96 Cad — Fak!

But i got a couple of old $2 bills for my change just for fun at no charge — we use “Toonie” coins here now in their stead.

So yeah... i done fucked up again! But sometimes to succeed you have to overcome many failures!

Those Apollo silver rounds are
OUT OF THIS WORLD....
I always go in looking for generic silver rounds. If I came across those Apollo rounds, they would come home with me..
Absolutely awesome pickup of cosmic coins

🤩🤩🤩 Glad you like @goldkey 🤩🤩🤩

🚀🚀🚀🚀🌎🌍🌏🛰🛰🛰🛸🛸🛸

Love the Apollo round, so much for our talk about focusing weight.😂😂🤣🤣. Very nice grabs tho my friend.

The best laid plans... 😳😱🤣🤣🤣👍

Cool article! And very nice pickups, @thedamus! The Apollo landing was really something special.

I knew you would like these Saver 🤓😘

I've never seen anything like those space medallions. They don't seem to be very common, which is probably why such the high markup. They're nice though, so don't worry about spending extra on them. I might have too. :)

The Stackitus makes a man do strange things!
😁🤣😜👍

Man you have some great lcs action where you are, I only have two and they blow!

It’s true... although ol’ J at J&M (my main lcs) is a shrewed ol’ cacksnaffler about 80% of the time, lofl. He’s usually got da goods, but ya pY for it!

My friend, that is the $1 Canadian Commemorative series. That is a very beautiful series, I love it and I have most of them, but not all...
At the moment I am in Madrid, Spain, visiting my other daughter and in a few days I will show a new series of articles about Spanish Commemorative coins. Don't miss.

Cheers Rono — enjoy Madrid!

I’ll keep them 🍌🍌🍌’s peeled!!!

😎👍

Omg. Fak weight! This stuff is the shizz. 😍

The Apollo 11 is amaze-ballz!!! 🤩🤩🤩

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

I Really Love a Variety of Silver. @thedamus I am not really a Space Guy although I do Own Some pretty Cool Silver Pieces that relate to NASA........

But what about the AC⚡️DC? — i figured you’d love that! 😜😁🤣👍🍆🕺

Those are some cool ass rounds bro, great score. I just placed my first real order in months. Pockets been a little light, but I scrapped together enough to make a decent order. No way I’m reaching my initial goals of metals. 😪😪😪 But I’m still in the game.

I hear ya pal... all play and no work make thedamus a very poor boy 😝😖😢
