I Got Mail! βœ‰οΈπŸ‰

in #steemsilvergold β€’ 6 years ago (edited)

Oh my gosh. It has been many moons since I posted about any new to me silver. But... YOWZA! I got an order in the mail this afternoon! Let me share this crazy new round I received.

Boom! πŸ’₯

Destiny Knight: Dragon of Death

How absolutely vicious is this round? Look at this death dragon! Horns like and ram, menacing teeth and a skull head... this round is TWO OZ of .999 fine silver. Apparently it is also the last round in a series... I don’t have the others. This round has a limited mintage of just 10,000.

The words, β€œDeath is certain, it’s hour is uncertain” and β€œMors certa,hora incerta” encircle the image on this side of the round.

Let’s see the other side!

Here we have the destiny knight. So much detail is visible on the armor and in the background. According to APMEX:

(The round) features a Knight from the MacIan Clan of Scotland who was seeking revenge against the MacLean Clan who sided with the Spanish Armada and ravaged their land around Tobermory Bay.

How very specific...

The words on this side of the round read, β€œDestiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice.”

I really like this round. Maybe I am just all amped up on dragons having just watched the series final of Game of Thrones? πŸ€” I definitely need to consult the internet to see the rounds in the rest of the series.

Did I say already this beauty is 2oz? It is one of those extra wide 2oz rounds. Check it out here next to a panda and a quarter.

Here is a whacky angle close up just for fun.

Let’s wrap it up with a palm shot.

Keep on stacking!

I owe you a message. I see you found the discord earlier. ☺️

Hey there my friend

Awesome 2 oz round, my sweet friend @dfinney!!! I love it. Did it come in a capsule? The lesson from Game of thrones... Life goes on... heheheπŸ˜‚!
Yes, β€œMors certa,hora incerta”, so I say have a beautiful day every day and "Carpe Diem".
Have a lovely day, and I will see you again on the next one!

Hello my dear! 2oz rounds are so delightful! It did come in a capsule! Thank goodness. I am a capsule addict! πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

I hope you are having a lovely day too! πŸ€—

Awesome piece. I have the first release in proof. Tgecdam thing looks alive theres so much detail.

I was just trying to look up the series. Is the one you have another dragon or is it a raven, shield or blacksmith? I was slightly confused by what rounds make up the series in this website I was visiting.

I don’t think it has any of those. It was before they started all that stuff. Next time I’m at the storage place I’ll check.

Dragon Death by;
a) Rend apart by sharp claws and teeth.
b) Crushed by huge feet
c) Toasted in flaming death
d) Eaten alive
e) Torn apart, toasted, then eaten
The Dragon makes the choice.

The Dragon is the top of the food chain. I prefer medium rare, outside chard and crispy, pre-chewed for tenderness.

Sounds like Steak broiled 'Chicago Style' Charred tenderloin on the outside bloody juicy on the Inside.

A little smoke would be awesome before it was cooked.

Favorite smoke aromas; Hickory or Applewood smoke

What about Mesquite?

For my taste it sits at 5th on the spice rack between Korean BBQ and Chipote Mango.
Burn baby burn! Gonna try out my new tabletop BBQ.

This makes me so happy! Just breaking down death by dragon!

Damn! That thing is sweet. I love the two ounce rounds best. What's it like to hold that beauty ot of the airtite? :o

Are you even speaking English right now? πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ€£

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i like the wacky close up shot best!!!

hehhe that is a beautiful coin Miss.

I'm dying to get me a 2 ouncer soon! hehehehe they're just so heavy and chunky and scrumptious!!!

not sure which side i like better - they are both so detailed!!!

nice catch!

Oooo! You should check out the Queen’s Beast coins! They are 2oz of total chunk!

oh come onnnnnnnnnnn.

i need them all!

i love the 2018 - the lion, dragon, unicorn and griffin!!!!!!!!! gahhhhhhh

why did you do this to me? its bad to covet!!!! LOL

Stack coveting is totally allowed. As is bacon coveting. πŸ˜‰

then i be a covet queen!

i just found a set of 6 on ebay for $400 LOL

but all the ones i want.

now.... if i can only find $400 somewhere....

Some you can still get for $39 or $40 each. Don’t let the internet get all your cash. ☺️

ok! hehehe i'll have to be on the lookout

Wow! That's an excellent thing!! It's quite badass

He looks like a meanie! But maybe he has a soft heart? πŸ˜„

Beautiful round. I saw it on Ebay and was tempted. I got a different dragon round instead. I would be proud to own that! Good buy. I am attaching a ingot I poured today and another I will be unboxing in a couple days.20190520_183142.jpgs-l400 (3).jpg

I was just looking at your post with the pours!!! You are doing an awesome job. The dragon you made is fantastic! And that one in the box... so fancy!

I really appreciate your enthusiasm and positive encouragement. I have a .999 stamp and a maker's mark stamp on the way for silver creations. I will take a look at your posts tomorrow.

The box silver is 10 ounces, the custom pour is in the 3 ounce neighborhood.

10!!! That’s a big one.

Is a huge dragon coin. Just noticed your reply.

Congrats on the curie!!

Thats really sweet, nice addition to any collection.

That is a badass round @dfinney. I think I may need one

Bad to the bone... ba ba ba bad... bad to the bone. πŸ˜„

That's a awesome round.. the detail is badass

Think someone out there had the talent to draw this thing before it turned into a metal round! Talented artist for sure.

I have some of the Earlier Ones

Ooo. Did the earlier ones have dragons on them or other things? I was looking them up earlier and saw there is maybe a blacksmith, raven and shield?

I will have to go through and find them
