Holding a chunk of metal seems to transport you back in time...
This thing is chunky, I feel like I've thrown that term around before about some other coins or bars I have, but this one beats them all. Valhalla Silver knocked it clean out of the ballpark with this bar...
Its just a beast... Those 2 copper coins are an ounce each, but they damn near feel like feathers compared to this...
Ok, ok, its not actually that big, I might be exaggerating just a little, but still 3 ounces, especially in this poured square form feels really hefty... And those pour lines! I can't be the only one that thinks those things are cool as hell...
This thing feels like it was made for a Viking warrior that pillaged some silver and was tired of carrying around a bunch of smaller bits so he had the local smithy melt them down and turn them into this... That same warrior would also probably think we're completely insane for transacting in anything but animals or precious metals, but that's beside the point...
Ok, one last photo...
The character on this is just amazing. If it weren't for the english words and numbers on the back I think you could put this in someones hand and they would instantly think it was about a millenia older than it actually is...
If you haven't checked out Valhalla Silver before you definitely should. He currently only does flash sales on Instagram, but he has mentioned that an Etsy shop is in the works...
'Til Valhalla, my fellow Steemians!
