AWESOME SILVER HAND POUR Part 3: HORSE

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago (edited)

Horses are true warriors in the history and freedom of our country.

George Washington was a true hero of the American Revolutionary War, but he couldn’t have done it without his trusted horses. He believed that horses were vital in the war and were adopted into the Continental Army to help claim our freedom.

Presenting....

Some information about the horses in American culture...


Fundamental to the culture of Native Americans in the mid-1600, the horse was an essential part of the lives of the Plains Indians, who viewed them as a source of wealth and used them for hunting, travel, and warfare.
In the 19th century, horses were used for many jobs. In the west, they were ridden by cowboys for handling cattle on the large ranches of the region and on cattle drives. In cities, including transporting people via carriage and horse-drawn public transport. They were used for hauling freight and for farming. In some cases, their labor was deemed more efficient than using steam-powered equipment to power certain types of mechanized equipment.

In my past young life, I learned show jumping and equitation. I spent several hours a day during my college life riding on the flat and over fences and on the equitation fields for dressage, show jumping and cross country... among the many other things I dabbled into.

Coming up next in the coming article are my three favorite American animal symbols.

Thank you for viewing this article. I will see you again soon!

This is lovely! Very unique and pretty!

I am glad you like it. I really love the pieces from Rik. I will show all three tomorrow. Hoping Friday will be a great day for you, my friend, @thekittygirl!

dang you get all the low numbers gotta love it another awesome addition to the collection <3

I love these pieces from Rik. They are beautifully made!

Another beautiful piece. The detail and posture of Rix’s work is stunning.
✨🤩👍✨

Indeed they are. I am pleased with his work. This is not for the stack... just my collection of hand-pours, which I know I could do less of, LOL! Let me tell you a secret... my stackitus is not relieved by these pieces. It is my ardent desire to fill that monster box of ASE that is causing me so much pain and anguish. So I look at these beautiful silver rounds and say... this set is the equivalent of 12 American Silver Eagles or a 1/10 of American Gold Eagle and then some.... wow, this set of rounds put me behind again in my goal accomplishment. Hehehehe... life is a struggle, isn't it so, @thedamus?

Beautiful Horse, really wonderful to get the PROTO................

If I can help it, this will be the last high premium item I will get this year.

That must have been fun, I love to watch that!

It was so much fun!!! And so very addicting. Boarding a horse is so pricey, and classes are the same way. My parents paid for all of that. I am so grateful for all that they did for me.

Very pretty, these rounds! Have a good evening, bestie!
