Greetings Stackers and Slackers ~
I am relatively new to Steemit and have just begun exploring the platform. I recently came across #steemsilvergold and have especially enjoyed what I've found here. I am still familiarizing myself with the local etiquette, so pardon any faux pas on my part.
I worked professionally in numismatics and bullion for ten years after college and personally assessed tens of thousands of coins from all corners of the globe. I'd love to get into my personal beliefs pertaining to precious metals, but will reserve that for another time. Please, feel free to ask me anything, anytime about coins or bullion and I may very well have an answer.
I'd like to do something to better engage and give back to the Steemit community in a capacity that is unique to myself. I was inspired by some of the dope silver raffles I've participated in on here and with that....
I am raffling-off a crimped roll of US Wheat pennies (50 coins) from an old-school collection. On one end of the roll is a shiny new example of a "wheatback" and on the other, an old silver dime for good measure. Inside the roll will be a varied mix of dates, some possibly going back over 100 years.
To participate, simply comment below with a number of your choice from 1 to 1000 (one that has not already been used). After 7 days, I will generate a number randomly and select a winner based on the closest guess. In the event of a tie, we'll re-draw. Winner can send PO Box or preferred mailing address to me via steemit.chat. Any proceeds from upvotes will be sent to @steemsilverround to help fund the new Steemit coin.
