A timeless treasure, to warm your cold dead heart

in #steemsilvergold7 years ago

Today is a magical, special, once in a lifetime day... You should all be greatful that you are alive for this moment...

What moment you ask?

Why the Duke of Sussex 'twas married.

That's right folks, the most important thing to happen to you, has happened this morning, or evening, depending on where you are.

Prince Henry (Harry), the Duke of Sussex KCVO ( Knight commander of the Victorian Order), has been taken off the market, sorry Ladies😢

So why not celebrate this most important moment in your life, with the most beautiful coin you've ever seen? That's right, the Royal Canadian Mint has out done themselves with this one!

Imagine holding that prescious coin, and gazing upon the lifeless zombie eyes of the Royal couple as the Swarovski crystals sparkle a bit like diamonds, so you can for a moment feel like a 1%er like them. Beautiful. What a treasure. And like all coins of the realm, the Queen is on the back.

Do you think Harry found it strange at strip clubs when he was shoving pictures of his Grandma in a girls G-string? I think it would feel weird doing that, but I'm not a fancy prince, so I don't know.

OK, enough sarcasm. What a terrible coin. The Canadian Mint has produced some real turds lately, and this turd is right up there with the worst.

(...thedamus farts in the general direction of that coin...)

Agreed!

Quite an ugly coin.

A total turd!

Worse is the marriage costs are 32M GBP (source britcoin) , paid by taxpayers.

That's even more than my wedding cost! Lol. It is crazy, all the pomp and pageantry, we put up with for that family.

Very amusing read :) Personally I don't think monarchies have a place in modern society.

I agree. Its an archaic system. I understand the whole "figurehead" thing, but we don't need it anymore... Mind you I'm a bit of an anarchist... So theres that, lol.

Quite expensive "figureheads" living lavish luxury lifestyles of the back of the taxpayers. In theory, I suppose I'm a bit of an anarchist too. Not much of a fan of some people lording over others.

Oh come on. Take out the crystals and I would totally buy this coin. 😍. 🇬🇧+🇺🇸=❤️👰🏽👑🤵🏼

lol! I watched the wedding twice! Once live at 4am local time! 😄😃💕

Lol. Needless to say... I didn't watch it.

I am shocked.... 😉

Thanks but no thanks. I like pretty coins this aint one lol

Its terrible iny opinion, and I won't celebrate the Royals, especially with an ugly coin.

Other than side profiles, it is very difficult to get portraits right on coins/rounds, I think. This is definitely not a good example.

Yeah, that's pretty rough. I think I'll pass.

Does the Canadian government issue these coins?

Yes, the Royal Canadian Mint issues them, under order from the Canadian Government.

This coin looks awful, but I will only state my opinion after I have seen the real coin. The drawing of the last marriage coin, depicting Prince William and Kate, was also awful but the coin is a reasonable one. See it at: https://steemit.com/steemsilvergold/@ronaldoavelino/77-the-royal-family

Hopefully the real coin looks better. I won't be buying it new anyway, these type always seem to sell cheaper in the secondary market in a couple years.

The William&Kate coin was issued costing CAD$104.95. I bought it on Ebay on January 2018 for US$ 25. Amazing, no?

That's how you win. Way better deal. Even this coin, I'd buy for $25 likely.

I’m not a fan of the Royal Family, but this is a nice looking coin, albeit expensive.
