A gift from grandpa (Update: History of this photo :D) - One photo every day (12/365)
The coin is my only possession of silver and is un fuerte de plata of 1921, my grandfather gave it to me when I was 12 years old and I have kept it since then, sometimes I do not know how I have not lost it in these 30 years, since it has been counterweight in my attempt to make a race car, boats or anything that has occurred to me as a child :D

The photo was taken with a Sony CyberShot DCS-W150 in ISO mode and not was processed or has any retouching, to be black and white, i take about 50 shots with different angles of light projection, as well as with the room with ligth or completely in dark
:D

Wonderful coin. Take care of it and keep it in the family. It is a piece of history.
Yes, when I have children, I'll inherit it, I hope it stays in the family for many generations
:D
Really neat coin.
the story behind it and the use as a weigh for childhood toys makes it even cooler.
the memories from it will always be worth more then the money value.
:D
Yes the truth is that the memory of using it for my inventions as a child, and that my grandfather gave it to me, has more value for me than any price that could have
:D
Yo tengo una pero de 5bs de plata
Si es lo mismo un fuerte :D
Lucky it did not make it to the bottom of the lake as your counterweight. Wow, ninety eight years back, silver was real money, I'm sure the kids of today think digital currency has any value
This is a very rare coin. place it inside the frame to make it look more special
Ty :D
