King of the Jungle

in steemsilvergold •  7 years ago  (edited)

One of the fun things about stacking silver is some of the many cool designs that are a available. Sure you may pay a bit of a premium over generic items for coins such as this but for me it keeps it fun and interesting.

This piece is from the folks at the Scottsdale mint. It's the 1 oz 2015 Congo Gorilla silver coin and it is badass!

This piece is .999 fine silver and the first in what looks to be a wicked series! There's a different design for 2016 and I just heard last week they're releasing another gorilla coin so it's official.

I don't know if I'm gonna chase these but when I saw this one I had to add it to my order

The reverse features the Congolese coat of arms and it's quite detailed. It has a wood grain texture and I think Scottsdale knocked this one outta the park!

But this isn't your normal neighborhood park..this is the jungle!

Ok that's enough monkeying around for today.

Thanks alot for looking at my coin and I'll be sharing lots more in the future!

I hope I've shared this correctly. How do I share a pic in this post?

Haha were monkey brothers! Great minds think alike haha

Stop monkeying around and get back to work!! (and yes I know it's a gorilla and not a monkey but gorrilaing around makes no sense)

I'm off today..I have nothing better to do haha

I've gone bananas for that design, thanks for sharing GA!
Love,
Silver Fingers

Great to see u again silver fingers lol

Haha I've got a fun video in the works, only the people that saw my last Steemit post will get the joke but it'll be fun regardless. I'm somewhere between your creepy stalker and your faithful sidekick 👍

The Gorilla is cool but for some reason I like the coat of arms a lot. Thank you and take care. Paul.

Yeah the reverse is very nice. My pics don't do it much justice. In hand it's a really nice looking piece. Thx for stopping by bud!

i love the reverse that kind of woody effect background is really cool it wood look good antiqued :)

Ive always overlooked this coin but i love the coat of arms, the elephants and dragon look amazing

It sure beats a picture of the boring queen! They really did a good job with these. Scottsdale makes quality products for sure. Thx for looking my good man

At this rate, I'm going to have an entire jungle in my stack!

Haha yeah but that's fun! Playing while we stack

We all know there is a lot of monkey business going on in the silver market and you would have to be bananas to not buy silver.

Haha well done and you're right! Check my latest post I think I hammered home our point very well..

I love that coin have one in my collection

The angry gorrilla i call it...love this design and i vested in this series.. think i got 11 or 12 of these. looks great out of the mint packaging but kept mine in omp as i do plan to sell them at some point...deffo keeping one set for me and i'll be getting 5 or 6 of the newist design.
Scottsdale done a great job on these and have got alot more commissions and not seen any milky spots as yet. which a big bonus.

Yeah they're great coins, good for you scoring a bunch! Keep stacking @roxdude
