Coin Keeper, alias Laura Blade, alias Silver Zombie has been a mainstay Silver Stacking channel in YouTube Precious Metal Community for years before I myself started. A delightful personality, a monster variety of precious metals unboxed over the years, knives, guns, epically generous giveaways , unboxings of new, old, and traded I can imagine her showing her full stack video would take an entire day.

At the time we were all having fun participating in her monthly Giveaways all winter by always commenting and posting a shout out or even two. Until YouTube was changed rules regarding Giveaways it dulled the party like atmosphere a bit. I didn’t win anything but had the fun in participating as best I can. Then I received a package of Paperweights from @pit-bullion at the beginning of February this year.
While her channel may be currently off-line we were recently assured by her closer friends that she is well and we hope that she will return, and we want to wish her well.

0.On the lower left is the 2 oz Troy 0.999 Fine Silver Hex Skull. I remember Coin Keeper quite awestruck by this particular piece of poured art in one of her unboxings. Two varieties, the paw stamp (Discontinued) and the current Pit Bull stamp.

0.On the right is the awesomely wicked PIC of DESTINY, a piece that I’ve had my eye on ever since THE video Rated Mature music lyrics, and ever since May 2017 this baby was high on the wish list but my issue of Cash was a problem for the rest of my 2017, medical bills are sure expensive . “Coin Keeper, I know you’ve been reading his comments section. Lol!”

0.Gosh the pour lines on the Hex! And of the credit roll isn’t complete without my hats off for well-made products by @pit-bullion available at his Website.

Chronicles of the Bloody Raven : The Nemesis Part 8

As my father's before me, I have been the King's Hunt Master for twenty five years now and I tell you what is far more dangerous than a predator creature is that of a Wounded predator creature. ~ Sir William of Cullenburgh 1589

The Duke also heard the signal echoing out from the ravine, an enemies’ signal. He recounted his troop positions and it began to dawn on him. This ridge was a perfect trap, and from inside the tree line smoking grenades lobbed at their direction landing among the awaiting feet of Night Crawler ranks.

A staccato of explosions threw uniformed men and weapons of the Decapitator Regulars hap hazard like rag dolls all over the ridge and tree line. Smoke and debris obscured the full scope of dead, wounded or incapacitated from the Dukes vantage point. Alas all he could hear are the agonizing moans begging for help followed by the clamor of the battle, his eyes searched up pathway into position of The Wolf Pack company, no more than thirty yards behind the Regulars but they were in no better situation clouded in the fog of war, “Signalman, sound the recall of all Spyders units back position now!” The Signalman hurriedly lit one rocket then barely lit the second one before a bullet smashed into his temple and falling into a heap. The rockets still each screeched skyward and exploded in it's distinctive 'bang-bang' and red smoke signaling the immediate General Recall.

As the enemy ranks are thrown into confusion the Pirates emerged from their cover. Flint with as much strength he could muster bowling over a group of huddled soldiers. Picking himself up he cut down two soldiers before they could respond and engaged another brandishing his sword, the Wolf soldier was good, but was fighting in a defensive posture. Flint's aggressive attack only took a moment to penetrate his defense and his opponent collapsed at his feet. In a quick survey he could see John across the grove clubbing down one man with the butt of his rifle before firing that rifle into another soldier saving a younger shipmate from the sword. Miguel and Huunta the Ethiopian we're each holding their own. The surprise has worked, now he had to hope the Huntsmann and Diablo corps are dealt with or this fight will end bad.

Wolf Pack Leftenant staggered through the dust towards the Duke, his nose and ears bloodied from the concussion of the blasts, “The Pirates! Came out of nowhere after the grenade attack! Moore is still in there with the remaining Wolves and are engaged but we need help now!”
“Damn! Able bodied Regulars form up and support the wolves!” The Duke climbed back up on his horse. The remaining Regulars barely able to respond, “I’ll send the Diablo and the Huntsmann in as soon as they get back here!”
Captain Jaurez had recognized the signal and ordered the Diablo corps back to the ridge “Retirada a la cresta!”. Greer sneered at the latest development. He signaled his squad to continue forward to the Raven's holdout position. “I won’t be denied!” he turned to his hand-picked men, "Ignore the signal we want the witch."
The small group of trapped Pirates had stopped firing from the rocks. He ordered his squad to rush their position, no time to evaluate whether they are out of ammunition or wiped out by mortar, Greer had to assume they were ready to stand and deliver. They rounded the boulder and aimed their guns into nothing, except vines and rubbish. Greer looked up the ravine wall, "No! They're gone."
Juarez led his Corp to the base of the ridge, "Avant!" he pointed his sword up the climb. Just as they began their accent back upon the ridge, a man in the rear screams, "Capitan....Aieeeee!" The Captain turn in horror as his rear rank we're swarmed by men bearing halberds and swords. He immediately recognized the force as the Dragoons of Keeper! Fifty, sixty, no eighty men emerging from the tree cover. His men in panic fired what they had in their rifles before committing to close combat with the enemy. They were hiding, prepared and ready. Dragoon halberds could pierce armor and attacking in three to one negated any close in corps bayonet defense tactics. In desperation Juarez spent his pistol round at a taking down a charging Dragoon and raised his sword in defiance as four Dragoon halberds plunged through his armor.

There was the tragic clamor of battle as the trail came over a crest into a grove where the enemy have positioned themselves before the ridge. The little group band stopped to catch their breath only to listen to swords clashing with swords punctuated by sporadic gunfire. Screams of dying men undistinguishable friend from foe underpinned the sense of urgency with the men, colleges, & shipmates.
"We're near’in the ridge, I kin ‘ear the fighting," Said the Scotsman.
“Put me down Charles, you need some rest too!” protested the Raven.
“Nah, I enjoyed lifting you all the way,” Charles eased the Raven on to her feet, "Ms. Raven, I think we will join our friends in the fight."
"Thank you Charles, I believe I can walk if not limp into battle. Go ahead and relieve Flint first, I'll catch up."
“As you wish Ms Raven.”

"Damn, where are my Huntsmann and the Diablo?" He swung his horse around again watching for his reinforcements as the situation was becoming grave. Control of the Decapitators was almost impossible with the troops in chaos with most officers dead or wounded. He was forced to take direct command consolidating as many remaining men of the Wolves and Regulars into some semblance of cohesion. He reached for the Nemesis, he never understood how it worked and caused the expeditions Chief scientist to age some ten to fifteen years age. No he couldn't do it unless...
There was a disturbance up the trail, he hoped it would be the Huntsmann arriving.
His heart sank as only eight pirate figures appeared, seven ran ahead into the fray. However, the remaining dark figure still favoring her left side only limping behind the ones charging into battle. It was his chance to kill this Bloody Raven. The Duke drew has sabre and kicked his horse into a gallop towards her. Ignoring the fighting around him he decided to aim to her left, forcing her to pivot on her wounded left side, as well as away from her dominate right hand style sword. He screamed aloud as his horse galloped into a full charge.
The Raven watches the Blue rider thundering towards her, his eyes fixed and determined, right hand gripping his sabre high. Facing a horseman on foot is a fearful situation experienced by all men no matter their station. The overwhelming advantage of the horseman's mobility, power, and intimidation are often the more skilled in combat but over the last three hundred years the Raven had the opportunity to learn where their weaknesses are too.
She drew her blade and shifted her weight on to her right. She could feel the hooves shake the ground beneath her feet. Close by a familiar figure emerges from her cover.

"Step aside Raven, I'll take care of this scum." Keeper drew her heavy bow slow enough for the Duke to recognize her. Those young eyes seethed with anger and vengeance before letting fly her silver tipped arrow plunging straight through his heart. The Duke gasped dropping his sabre as he fell. She then turned to the Raven, "Relax friend, we already took care of the Huntsmann some of them ran into the jungle so let us take over” She looked over the Raven, “You know you look terrible...2nd Dragoons, follow me and attack!"
