Nick Name Contest entry for #steemsilvergold SSG-Community bot

Here is my submission for the SSG-Community Nick Name Contest

May I present to you...

Minty

Minty
The Leprechaun

Mintgomery Goldbuckle McSilverpurse is his formal name, but nobody calls him that. Since time eternity, he's been known jovially under many nicknames: Minty McGoldshanks, Minty Silvertongue, The Golden Mintmaster, etc..

Nobody has ever seen Little Minty, but legend has it that he lives at the end of the rainbow where he hides all the lost silver and gold in the world, and he turns it all into valuable coins. Every time a person finds a coin on the road or buried under the earth, you can thank Old Minty for hiding it there. Minty's silver and gold coins are always considered good luck!

Like all Leprechauns, Minty's favorite color is Green. He only wears green clothes, because it helps him to hide in the thick green fields and forests of Ireland where he lives. The shamrock is his favorite plant because it blankets his coins with good luck until they are ready to be found.

Since nobody really knows what Minty looks like, artists often represent the little bugger in different ways. It is believed that he is a tiny leprechaun, so small that he can easily fit inside a pocket. He has to be that small, because he keeps track of everybody's coins to make sure they stay safe and accounted for. Minty loves sporting his gold buttons, buckles, and even gold teeth. His hair was once bright orange, but over the years it has matured into a shiny silver. When he laughs you can see his gold freckles, and he might wink and hip his green hat before disappearing behind a cloud of golden glitterdust.

As a sign of great favor, Minty's Silver Shamrock is the emblematic coin which he bestows to those patrons whom he considers most admirable. Anyone who has been given a Silver Shamrock, you can be sure they are very shrewd and wise with managing their wealth. Holding onto this coin is believed to be so lucky that the owner might be showered with wealth and rewards beyond their wildest dreams.

A strange package filled with green socks arrives. Upon further inspection, inside the left sock is a scroll with a silver wax seal pressed with the emblem of shamrock. After breaking the seal, the golden etched letters are revealed.
