# 37 - In Canada

in #steemsilvergold8 years ago (edited)

I am back in Canada, after four months in Brazil. As you know, my elder daughter lives in Vancouver, BC, and every coin, bar or round that I buy in the Internet, I send to her home.

When I came back to Brazil on early December, I took all my stack to my home, so all you will see here in the following weeks is what I bought in the past four months.

Looking at the volume you can see that I am completely addicted to stackits or stacktitis. I have seen the name of this delicious disease written in both ways.

The first photo is a general view of the stack, as it was when I arrived (yesterday).

This is the photo of what came and my daughter choose not to open, so that we can open them together (last three weeks).

I know that looking at so much silver (and gold) at a distance is not good to our health. So I picked two coins from the stack, just as an appetizer.

Both are $.50, 92.5% silver 7.5% copper and weight 9.3 g.

The first came in this metal box.

The first is the 1998 "Sky Racing and Sky Jumping", issued by RCM to commemorate the first Canadian Sky Racing and Sky Jumping Championship, held in Rossland, BC, in 1898.

The other is the 1998 "Figure Skating", issued by the RCM to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the first Speed and Figure Skating Championship held in Canada in 1888.

Very nice to see you reunited with family and additions to a great metal collection!

Thank you. Yes, family is all.

How wonderful you got back to North America to visit your packages. And your daughter living there is a bonus! Lol... or is it the other way around. I LOVE coming home to a stack of packages, but I don't think I've had one that high before :D Have a great time.

Thank you. I spent the whole morning trying to sort all the coins already opened. Maybe tomorrow I will start opening the packages. I love it!

I hope you had a good trip to Canada, I really like the figure skating coin, and how the designed it really magnificent

The trip was very good and I am now doing what I like most: sorting the coins/rounds already opened, opening the packages left, taking pictures of everything and scheduling a great number of articles. That is the life that I like and tomorrow I will go to my first LCS in Vancouver(this time). About the coin, it is one of a series that RCM issued. I have two more of this series and I will show them in a near future. During the next weeks or months you will be buried by Canadian Commemoratives.

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold
