This will be the FIFTH time our community has held a monster raffle, and our first raffle since 2019!

Monster Raffle FAQ:

What is it?
Monster Raffle is a fundraising initiative which raises hive/hbd to strengthen the voting power of our community curation account. The curation account uses its VP to upvote posts on the blockchain about precious metals (silver and gold). The support of precious metals content helps grow membership in our community which in turn increases the amount of precious metals content shared on Hive.
What are the prizes?
All of the prizes in the raffle are made of either gold or silver (usually coins, rounds, bars or hand poured pieces) and these prizes are donated to the raffle by community members. Each donated prize has a cash value of at least $15 USD, (though most donations are worth far more).
Who can enter?
EVERYONE on hive is welcome to participate in this event. Postage on prizes is the responsibility of the piece’s donor (not the prize winner). However, please make sure your country allows the importation of silver/gold, and realize we are unable to take responsibility for the reliability of your country’s postal service.
How do you enter?
*The silver gold stackers community is in the process of collecting donations for this event. Once the prize list has been confirmed (approximately 2 weeks from now), ticket sales will begin. Specific information on pricing will be announced at that time.
When is it?
The raffle is TENTATIVELY scheduled to take place Saturday, September 30th / Sunday, October 1. The live drawing will be held in the silver gold stackers discord. More details and exact dates and times will be shared/confirmed in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, let’s get to the FUN part!

Ladies, gentleman and all identifiers in between… here is my donation to Monster Raffle Five.

Not to be “out weighted” by @summertooth, and keeping up my personal tradition of donating the same amount of ounces as the raffle’s number… this FIVE oz, .9999 fine, ultra high relief, brilliant finish, sculptural art piece from the Argentia Mint is my contribution to Monster Raffle 5.

The cat silver bar “features modern art inspired by the mythology of ancient Egypt”. This bar is produced in Canada. According to the Argentia Mint’s website, “each product is die struck with a free-flowing metal process, resulting in a live edge unique look and feel.” Source
