We have another WINNER! and proof that Heros never die! ~ Lest we forget
Please take a minute today, if you haven't already, and quiet your mind. Think about the brave soldiers that have laid down their lives and their limbs to protect our version of liberty. Our way may not be perfect, but i choose to believe in the greater good than otherwise.
Be peaceful friends, and kind too.
...they shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old...
Now, onto the rest of this post -- there is much to say!
First off, we have another winner! @jznsamuel COME ON DOWN!!!
You are the winner of a 1oz .999 Silver Steem "Community" round bearing the serial number: #1158/1500
Congratulations! Please send a mailing address to me via steemchat. The Round will be mailed on Tuesday. Thanks for rocking this contest!
Secondly, i would like to really call out @owenwat for his ingenious approach, and generosity. Not only did he create his own contest -- which i hope to win! -- but he made one of the requirements of his contest, to vote for him in my contest. And his entry was submitted for the benefit of @goldmatters , AND, the sbd the post makes is going to @silvergoldbotty (Stax) -- just waaay too much awesomeness going on right there!!!
So, i would like to announce that there is a second prize in this contest -- formerly not revealed -- it is: a 1oz .999 Silver Steem "Community" round and you, @goldmatters, have won!
COME ON DOWN!!!
Please make sure you thank @owenwat...oh wait, you've already sent him a 10g cube of gold...so, nevermind lol! Congratulations @goldmatters!!!
Keep on being awesome! You are a valued and respected member of
And now...the Hero part. I wrote a post after Halloween about losing #1163 to the frightening wilds and booming thunder of All Hallows Eve.
I just got the denim jacket i'm wearing in first pic and discovered an unstitched section of the inner pocket. I remeber putting the coin in there so i wouldn't lose it, and then discovering the hole when i went looking for it the next day. I looked through all my pockets and nothing! I even cut the coa in half!
Well true to its heroic stature and being a Veteran of a night out drinking in fancy hotels and going to see the Roger Waters concert, as well as some wine shopping for another party, this hero made it out ALIVE!!!
#1163 was discovered slightly bludgeoned and sooty, taking cover from the madness inside our junk drawer! It lay half in and half out of its protective body armour and looks like it went through hell. But as i pulled it out of the near grave, it flashed a toothless grin and croaked a veteran's reassurance: together we are legion!
#1163 will be given First Class transport to @goldmatters HQ
When i told my boys about it Charlie pondered over his Nerf rifle and baby Leon danced and laughed!
Both boys already know that gold is money and that it matters, and Charlie has a 1oz gold Red Dragon of Wales and Leon has a 1oz gold Lion of England. I'm raising some new stackers friends!
Please make sure you say hi to Stax -- she's just like a child: the more love and votes of approval you give, the better they do!
Thank you all for participating in this contest -- it was really fun! I'd also like to formally announce here that the newer contest i have running (5sdb as the prize sent to an upvoter) will be matched by me, from my own funds. So it is now a 10sbd upgoat!!! Make sure you check it out!
Viva #steemsilvergold

There is no doubt that gold is money... in my country people count gold as their property if bad times come, gold will save... i saw my parents would buy gold from their savings.. time is changing, if i get money, first i will buy bitcoin then gold!
Great contest man, so glad you were able to award two winners! So awesome and so much generosity.
😁👍
Best to you on Remembrance Day
