My First Poured Silver - Anubis (Monarch Precious Metals)

Another shipment of goods just came in the mail... this is actually my first acquired "poured" silver. I'm already a fan of them because each piece is unique due to the process used in making them. These are from Monarch Precious Metals - the "Old World Egyptian God Anubis Jackal" piece:

The description from Monarch PM states the following:

"These are new bars which were purposely made to look like ancient stone relics chipped off the side of a tomb. No two bars are exactly alike as they have been purposely hand struck off center and given an application of "antique" patina along with an 'anti-polish' to add to the look of old world charm."

I've always been fascinated with ancient civilizations, and especially the ancient Egyptians and the pyramids. I actually have around 20 ounces of silver (all of them are "rounds" except for these new poured pieces) that have Egyptian Hieroglyphics or are otherwise ancient Egyptian-themed.

You can find more information about these particular pieces (or others by Monarch Precious Metals) here: https://www.monarchpreciousmetals.com/silver/monarch-silver-products/1-oz-silver-relic-bar-old-world-style-egyptian-anubis-detail

This is what the other side looks like. From the picture you can tell this is not the same piece - it's much more square and has its own distinct "character" to it:

The two pieces side-by-side:

And the reverse side:

I always try to pick up multiples when I'm buying a new round/bar, that way if I do need to trade/sell any, I can keep at least one for myself :) But I don't plan on selling anytime soon. I will be stacking for the foreseeable future.

Thanks for checking them out - as always, any insights, questions or comments would be welcomed! Thank you to the steemsilvergold community and others who share our fondness for precious metals and investing. Until next time..
