Hey my Steemit friends, I have some more lovely treasures to show you. I have recently purchased two silver coins that I just can't keep to myself.

First we have the 2017 Tuvalu Dragon:

Gaze upon this Chinese style dragon, coiling and curled around a precious pearl, guarding his treasure. Become the dragon everyone!

Another shot at an angle, a beautifully aged coin, deeply recessed, making the mythical beast really pop out from the shadows.
Gorgeous!

The other side is not as exciting, but I do appreciate the brushed metal look. Face value of 2$. This is 2 ounces of the purest 0.9999 silver.

Can be obtained here:

Next we have a coin from the Niue Island Nummulites Series:

Yes I always save the best for last. Phew, just look at this coin..stunning. A nummulite is a fossil, a spiral shell. Beautifully rendered here in lustrous gold. You can see more shells and fossils in the background, the dark surface is a layer of ruthenium giving it a shaded glossy look.

On the obverse side, we have the queen again, but also more shells and patterns on a sea floor. This coin is 2 ounces of pure 0.999 silver with a coating of gold and ruthenium.

Get it from here:

A grand total of 4 ounces of pure (and pricey) silver added to my stack.

Oh love the dragon coin! I think its a beautiful buy! And good to keep.. you could sell it at a good price if need be nxt time, asians love their dragon and will pay gd money:)

Such cool coins , I actually found a cool coin today I will post it :)

I need to post my physical litecoins too sometime.

Always good stuff sir @neoxian.

wow the dragon looks amazing!

REALLY like that fossil coin!

here are some other fossil coins ive found
coulndt find any like yours but heres ome with dinosaurs on them? heh thts close isnt it?

and this would make a great coin if if u could make a good 3d rendering from laser scan

and man i love fossils and the idea of findingand selling them, i want a collecion of rare fossils and this on look so cool! very rare tho apparently, god it would be great to geta metal detecto and go gold hunting AND go fossil hunting too! And i anna look for gems and crystals! I know theers plenty around my house ive found lost of quartz and lots of colorful clear crystals in the dirt in my backyard and @monkimo brought me some BIG quartz crystals ill have to take photos of, have em und rmy cannabis plants!

To me, the fossil look sure gives that coin a vintage feel. Very pretty.

These are some of the most beautiful silver coins I have seen.
The Niue Island Nummulites Series is absolutely spectacular.
I have never seen anything like it.
You have a great collection @neoxian

I too am a metals investor. I never thought we'd see the prices stay so long at these levels after the big run up to 50$/oz 2011. Thought we'd be back in the 30$/oz range by now. What is your price outlook for the rest of the year into 2018?

And great coins by the way! You must be a real collector. Wow!

Sorry I'm not good at predictions.

Ha ha. Apparently mi neither. lol. I'm new here on steemit. I give travel advice and tips. I love to help others and will be posting soon about medical tourism. For any travel tips and advice, don't hesitate to look me up. Will be following you, very interesting stuff you put on here. Have a great day. - Dan "World Travel Pro!"

These coins are really beautiful and subtle.

That's a good coin to keep, do you know where this coin comes from?

Wow beautiful design. I like your drawing of silverbug too! Thanks for sharing!

Nice, my favorite is the dragon and I really like the antique finish

Really nice and plush coin collection you have. with the look of an elegant and admirable. thank you've shared

I love the first one with the dragon. That one's a real beauty.

Same here.

@nexoian The dragons are traditionally shown with their mouths open and their eyes wide, as they endeavour to catch the prized treasure.

The flaming pearl is viewed as a metaphor for wisdom, enlightenment and spiritual essence. From an artistic perspective, dragons are frequently depicted in pursuit of the flaming pearl, which is represented as swirling through mist, smoke and shadows.

Beautiful coins! Thanks for the link.

Those are some beautiful and unique silver coins. Never knew coins could be so beautiful and silver on top of that. Great job collecting your silver.

Chinese dragon looks Sick !

Are these used for shopping?

I believe they are both legal tender coins, yes.

@neoxian,
I like this part of the article :D
"The other side is not as exciting, but I do appreciate the brushed metal look." Lol bro you meant the queen :D If she knows this :D Lol :D

Back to topic! I like coin #1 with that great dragon! Wow that's great! Nice to see ya back and hope we have new updates soon!

Cheers~

You're making me wish I had money to buy some silver, haha. They really are beautiful looking coins.

The first one looks really cool. That dragon is dynamite. :)

sexy coins, ma man. I like the dragon the best, where did you get those?

Wow!! Those are absolutely beautiful. I didn't know they created coins like this. Just pure works of art. Thanks for sharing!

Wow those are both amazeballs. You're killing me with these awesome pieces. I'm trying real hard to just stack generic rounds just to stack weight. But coins like these definitely keep the hobby fresh.

I hope silver stays undervalued. That way I can stack more.

Vince & Jules approve...

I wonder how much it's price, considering two marks on the other side of the coin. 😃😃😃

those are gorgeous. . i love the first coin. the dragon gives so much power to it.

Amazing coins. By the way, in my opinion physical silver is one of the most undervalued asset, since it is been manipulated by big banks.

If it's undervalued, why doesn't it drive the demand higher?

naked short-selling of silver futures contracts. "Somebody" sells imaginary silver that does not exist into the markets to force prices down.

Two such awesome coins. And then have some dumbass-queen head on the other side...

Chinese style dragon looked the best ,amazing work done on it such beautiful carving ,this collection is amazing :D Thanks for sharing about it

@neoxian, I definitely like the first coin best. The depth of the piece is incredible. And the brush metal adds an interesting twist.

Thanks for sharing your treasure! Look forward to seeing more!

I like the first silverbugs
