TWO FAT OUNCES of FREE SILVER - GIVEAWAY PRIZE

The giveaway prize is a silver round that contains TWO FAT OUNCES of SILVER. The silver round looks identical to an American Silver Eagle. However, it is two ounces, so it is as fat as two American Silver Eagles. The reason I am giving away these TWO FAT OUNCES is because I now have TWO THOUSAND FOLLOWERS. It is one silver round as you see in the pictures. ( The American Silver Eagles in some pictures are not part of the prize ).

I AM A SILVER STACKER BECAUSE I PRESERVE WEALTH

I am a silver stacker because I preserve wealth by stacking silver. I know that silver will always possess value. As fiat currencies lose value over time, the silver that I possess will not ever lose value. I don't place value of my silver stack in terms of fiat currency. I value my silver stack based on the number of ounces, period.

WHAT IS A SILVER STACKER

A silver stacker is someone who buys and keeps silver. A silver stacker takes a portion of personal income and purchases silver on some regular basis. The silver is kept safe and is generally called a silver stack. Thus, a silver stacker owns a silver stack.

  • The amount of silver is measured in weight, specifically in troy ounces (or Kilos)
  • The type of silver is .999 or .9999 pure silver, which is 99.9% silver or 99.99% silver.
  • The form of silver is in coins, rounds, or bars
  • The source of silver is from Government Mints, Private Mints, or other sources.

@AnotherVoice

This is also a shout-out to @AnotherVoice. He suggested this contest for my next giveaway. We both want to know from our silver stacker friends: "Why Are You A Silver Stacker?" Since some followers may not be silver stackers, I am also interested in why are you NOT silver stacker. Thanks to @AnotherVoice for his suggestion.

@AnotherVoice offers Great Advice on silver stacking, economics and world perspectives on precious metals. Finally, @AnotherVoice offers LOTS of beautiful photos of various locations from around the world. I always enjoy his posts. Check him out.

Thank You for your support! Good Luck!

I love that it’s TWO FAT OUNCES — that's wicked!

you crack me up! LOL

Nice one!

Congratz to the winners!

I am a SILVER STACKER because of three main reasons!!!

a) To begin with, I learned about silver's incredible value, beauty and history at a really young age as my grandpa's family in Smyrna traded silver during a period that everybody was after gold (1850's). It didn't go well for them initially, but a decade later they were some of the richest traders in all Smyrna. Unfortunately, our family's wealth was lost during the "Great fire of Smyrna."

b) Historically speaking, the Greeks were the first people in history mining silver back in 3000 BC in Anatolia (later known as Byzantium). I am of Greek origin and I love studying the history of my ancestors. The Greeks used tonnes of silver fashioning valuable ornaments, jewelry, and eating utensils. In contrast to the Romans, the ancient Greeks valued and loved silver more than gold.

Furthermore, according to Greek myth, the "Silver Period of Man" as described by the ancient poet Hesiod in his poem Works and Days, following the Golden age and preceding the Bronze Age, was the very best (in my opinion) for men as humans supposedly lived a whole century as children and later youngsters without growing up (they only reached to their late 20's) and then suddenly aged and died overnight, usually peacefully in their sleep. THAT AWESOME silver was to humans according to Greek myth :)

Also the scientific symbol Ag for silver derived from the Greek ἀργός translating to "shiny."

c) Last but not least, I LOVE and VALUE silver more than any other chemical element because I am fascinated by its amazing colour and its amazing DIVERSITY. Most people think of silver just as "money," but if you do some research about it, you will realize that silver is and has been useful to our for centuries now. Even in today's hi-tech world, compounds of silver are used in photographic and X-ray film to improve the quality of the image/picture.

Voted and followed. Here's a photo of my humble silver collection :)

Thank you for describing such a personal story and such fantastic reasons for respecting the value of silver. This gives a personal and historical reason for valuing Silver. Thank you.
YOU ARE IN for TWO FAT OUNCES of SILVER. Good Luck!

Thank you, mate :)

Interesting post -- I absolutely adore the fact that Ag means "shiny" in ancient Greek.

Thank you, mate :)

I Am Not A Silver Stacker YET !! @karenmckersie But ever since I won that awesome 2011 Year of the Rabbit Coin from @edthecanadian a while back, ( which im holding right now actually as I keep it close for good luck when im blogging on Steemit lol! ) I have fallen in love with Silver , Hahaha ! I just wish I had more money to buy some , then for sure I would be a Silver Stacker !! Im currently involved in three contests , plus this one now that i am hoping to win and add to my only other silver coin I have , which I love , and soon be considered a Silver Stacker , I Hope!! Upped , followed and resteemed @goldkey !! Fingers and toes Crossed !! ✌👍👌💰💰💰
Heres a collage on my @karenmckersie account , I did as part of my post I made when I received my Coin in the mail from @edthecanadian ! I Love Silver Now !! im also following you there , upped and resteemed !

Being a silver stacker starts with one, it's a stack of one. So, you're a silver stacker in my book.
I see you're @karenmckersie account mentions retirement early. One of the main reasons for silver stacking is to preserve wealth. This is very important: preserve wealth with silver/gold.

Thank You for your support! Good Luck!

I am a silver stacker because: i am no fool. The fundamentals are solid, and having this magnificent period of cheap metals is a grand luxury that will be missed, and wished for to return soon enough.

You're IN @thedamus for TWO FAT OUNCES of SILVER!
Nobody can call you a fool, no way. This IS a great time to buy with these low prices.
Thank You for your support! Good Luck!

WOW! Just Wow! I came to tell you why I was a stacker and why I am no longer stacking but then I see your generous words. A huge thanks. Really you over did it. I do hope that at some point my working environment will change and allow me to share the lesson I have learned through a very interesting life. I do enjoy the photos as it allows me to show people what they might see if they would only look.
I think I commented at some point that I was not stacking silver because my stack is where it needs to be for now and if I add more PMs It would be gold because you can conceal and travel with a much greater value. There are so many ways for all that is happening to end but none are good. Everyone needs to be flexible and have options. I just might stacking toilet paper because there’s a lot of S@#t heading our way. Again a huge Thank You!

It is a great post, just look at the well thought out responses. I really just what good people to put some real thought into what they are doing to better their chance of getting it right.

You are welcome @anothervoice. I always appreciate your input. I give credit where credit is due and this was a great idea.
I think it helps the silver stackers display the reasons for their decisions. Some are different reasons so we are learning additional reasons. Also, the non-silver stackers are learning about it.
This worked out great! Along with the others You're IN @anothervoice for TWO FAT OUNCES of SILVER!
Thank You for your support! Good Luck!

@goldkey,

I am a Silver Stacker because...I am and will be!

Stacking silver has been ingrained in me by my father since I was just a little tyke. When I was a child, he gave me a silver dollar dated 1956, the year of my birth. I have cherished it since I was ten years old. It was that simple gift from my father that spurred my interest in silver so many years ago. AND as an adult, opened my eyes to the need of having a way of surviving a cataclysm. Stacking silver is my...just in case...plan.

I have always checked my pocket change for silver coins and my dollar bills for silver certificates.

Fast forward to my adulthood.

Over the past fifty years, I have found countless silver coins and a few silver certificate dollars. I have also bought coin collections from people I know. Not because I wanted to be a collector, but because of the material value should an economic catastrophe take place. I live in the desert southwest and bartering has become a way to "pay" someone with things that I possess for things they have that I need. Like chickens. I have a bunch of chickens. I live in a strawbale house not far from the US-Mexican border. I am always in need of something. I traded ten chickens for my front door to finish off my home.

I joined Steemit to earn "coins" from my writing, poetry, and blog. I hold a small amount of Bitcoin as well. Sometimes I transfer SBD to Bitcoin and Bitcoin to fiat currency just to buy silver. Sometimes I buy gold as well, but SILVER is the way to go because of its fractional value in a SHTF situation.

But it's not just silver coins in my reserve. I have many different forms of silver in the form of cutlery, jewelry, bouillon, serving sets, well you get the point.

When the SHTF, my junk silver coins will be a way to "barter/pay" for the things I need to survive, whether it be food, fuel, ammo, and the list goes on.

I do not disclose how much I have on hand, nor do I show it to my friends. It is mine. My silver is there for my survival. Without it, I would not be able to survive in a SHTF situation. Simply put, I am a silver stacker because...I am and will be!

Greetings @Lymmerik. It is nice to meet you. Thank You for such a complete reply.
The SHTF scenario is possible and preparation is a necessity.
I'm amazed that you are already in a barter environment, and that silver is recognized for its value. (Chickens too, I suppose.)
Your response displays your writing skills, and I will be checking out your posts going forward.
You are invited to check out #steemsilvergold for more like minded folks.

@goldkey,
Thanks for the acknowledgement. Out here in the desert, one has to be prepared, and an inventive prepper!
BTW: Congrats on 2,000 followers!
@Lymmerik

I am a Silver Stacker because...

  1. The wealth I saved on paper is not the true representation of wealth. I've tracked my cost of living turned out as a Cost of losing. I was being robbed everywhere in; Inflation (if you believe the Govt figures), rampant Govt spending/debt, increasing taxes from three levels of govt., Banking fees, consumption fees etc. Both Buying power and discretionary income tanking.
  2. Learned that my ancestor survived a Banking Crisis because he had a hoard of silver coin while his neighbors had their savings in a failed bank.
  3. My Father was a passive coin collector and made quite a tidy sum in the Hunt Brother's silver boom. I still have his souvenir 5 oz Johnson Mathey bar and a few surprises from his estate. And he instilled in me that idea that Gold and silver is real money in my playtime as a Pirate Princess. Just check out some of my blog Posts of The Bloody Raven! Arrrh!
  4. Coming across good genuine information and commentary on the Internet. Commentators with well researched and well sourced arguments on the reasons for saving in Precious metals.
  5. And made a lot of great friends in the Silver Stacking community.

You're IN @kerrislravenhill, The Bloody Raven, and Fellow Silver Stacker for TWO FAT OUNCES of SILVER!
Thanks for posting more about yourself here and telling us more reasons to be a silver stacker, . . . and a pirate I suppose! Arrrh! Thank You for your support! Good Luck!

hopefully the price of silver will stop getting manipulated. MOst of my ounces were bought between 2009 and 2012

You're IN Fellow Silver Stacker for TWO FAT OUNCES of SILVER! I agree the manipulation must stop.
If my memory is correct, that time frame was a time of higher costs. Are you getting in on these lower costs of today? I hope so . . . Thank You for your support! Good Luck!

I am a silver stacker because - stackers get the hottest chicks, best looking girlfriends and the most beautiful wives #fact. Don't believe me https://steemit.com/steemsilvergold/@welshstacker/the-real-reason-why-we-stack-precious-metals-a-must-read-for-people-thinking-about-joining-us
