I actually received this in mid-December, but just haven't had a chance to post it up. Let's see what we've got.
Provident Machine Bearings? I don't remember ordering from them! <winkyface.emoji>
No, this package is the Provident Metals order I made during Black Friday week. This was my first order from Provident, and I'm happy to report that I am 100% satisfied.
Now, on to the shiny. Up to this point, I've largely been a weight stacker, picking up unusual pieces when I saw them, but never paying much over spot. This order represents my first foray into buying some rounds because it like the design, more than the price. First up, I ordered one of the Spiderman rounds. I'm a comics fan from way back, so I imagine I'll pick up this whole series.
I also picked up 2 of these Darth Vader rounds. I've also been a Star Wars fan for a long time, so I will also pick up all of this series. I opted for 2 Vaders instead of a Vader and a Stormtrooper because the Vader rounds seem to be sold out at a lot of places, and are getting hard to come by.
I also picked up the latest in the Horsemen series, The Black Horse of Famine. I haven't been collecting this series, but I quite liked the look of this one.
This last one is probably the one I'm most excited about. During Black Friday week, Provident was running different specials at spot. On the day I ordered, it was a 1oz silver round of their choosing. I added one just to get up to the free shipping threshold. So imagine my surprise when this was what I got. It's a Dogecoin round! I love this thing. In many ways Dogecoin was my introduction to cryptos, which I discovered shortly before I started buying silver, so this ounce of silver represents a perfect intersection of two of my interests.
