The other day, I was unexpectedly greeted with a surprise from @robrigo. The surprise? A solid silver Steem Coin from none other than your boy @virtualgrowth! 1 Troy ounce of silver goodness. #1255 of the total 1500 minted, to be exact.
Here's the back of it:
This is the first time that I've seen one of these, and I get to be the owner of one! Are there any other owners out there that I know!? Post pictures of your babies! Where did you get yours?
Will this be melted?! No! Will this be framed and displayed with pride in my home?! Yes!
I thought that this was pretty cool, so I thought I'd drop a post about it in case anyone didn't know about these. I didn't, and now I do! Pretty cool, I gotta say.
If you have one, post it in the comments! Let's see it!
Farewell for nowww.

Oh, dude. That's pretty god damn dope. First time I've ever seen one of these. Definitely a cool item to have on hand, bro.

Oh, great. I congratulate you with such a gift. It's really cool to have such a silver steem. I didn't know that they exist. Is this some sort of limited-edition collectible?

Yes, it is 1 ounce (~28 grams) of pure silver. Only 1500 were made.

Well, then it's doubly nice and cool to have such a rare symbolism of the platform. And it is very valuable, really deserves to hang it in a frame.

@matt-a, I’m glad you were able to get one!! We should be coming out with the 2018 Steem Silver Round soon! We have the contest going on now over at @steemsilverround to decide the ultimate design!
If anyone else is looking for them I’ve got some for sale!
It still boggles my mind that so many people have not heard of the project at all with so many people posting about it. It shows you how “big” Steemit has become!
